Ok I had another idea, that will hopefully take off :) Basically, there are a lot of great episode endings in Stargate so I thought it would be interesting to see what the overall best final scene is, as voted by Gateworld members.

As I for one can't remember all the final scenes, I'll post them for each round. We'll start off with the first part of season 1: episodes 1 - 11

Children of the Gods, part 1 (I realise this scene is actually cut from the episode when shown seperately but it's the last scene before the beginning of part 2 in the transcripts, so sorry if anyone has an issue with this scene being here as opposed to another of the possible cut off points between part 1 and 2)

INT—O'NEILL'S HOUSE

[O'Neill collects two beers from the fridge, takes them to the living room where Daniel is waiting. Daniel sneezes.]

O'NEILL
Nice catch.
DANIEL
Thank you, sorry. Gate travel always seems to make my allergies…
(He blows his nose)
Sorry.
(He takes the beer)
O'NEILL
So, you were saying.
DANIEL
Anyway, um, as soon as you were gone they realised that they were free, I mean, Abydos was their world for the taking.
O'NEILL
Have a little party did ya?
DANIEL
Oh yeah, big, big party. They treated me like their saviour, it was um…embarrassing.
O'NEILL
It's amazing you turned out so normal.
DANIEL
Well if it wasn't for Sha're I probably…
(He pauses at her memory)
She was the complete opposite of everyone else,
(He sits)
she practically fell on the floor laughing every time I tried to do some chore that they all took for granted. Like um, grinding yaphetta flour. I mean, have you ever tried to grind your own flour?
O'NEILL
I'm trying to kick the flour thing.
DANIEL
(Laughs)
This is going straight to my head.
(Takes another swig of beer)
What time is it anyway? I must have Gate lag or something.
O'NEILL
Daniel, for crying out loud, you've had one beer. You're a cheaper date then my wife was.
DANIEL
Yes, when am I going to meet your wife?
O'NEILL
Oh, probably…uh, never. After I came back from Abydos the first time she'd already left.
DANIEL
I'm sorry.
O'NEILL
Yeah, so was I. I think in her heart she forgave me for what happened to our kid, she just…couldn't forget.
DANIEL
And what about you?
O'NEILL
I'm the opposite, I'll never forgive myself, but sometimes I can forget. Sometimes.
(He takes another swig of beer)

Children of the Gods, part 2

INT—GATE ROOM

[The three fall through the Gate, Casey collapses to the ramp.]

CARTER
Now! Lock it up, lock it up!
TECHNICIAN
(Over the intercom)
Closing iris!
[The iris closes and they hear four metallic thuds as the guards that followed hit the metal. Then the sounds stop.]

TECHNICIAN
(Over the intercom)
Wormhole disengaged.
[The iris opens. Medics rush up the ramp as they are called.]

MEDIC
Let's get him to the infirmary, let's get him inside.
(They depart)
HAMMOND
Colonel O'Neill. Care to explain?
CARTER
Um, we can use the Stargate to send these people home, sir.
HAMMOND
What's he doing here?
(Motioning to Teal'c)
O'NEILL
General Hammond, this is Teal'c. He can help us.
HAMMOND
Do you know what he is?
O'NEILL
Yes, sir I do, he's the man who saved our lives. And if you accept my recommendation, sir…he'll join SG-1.
HAMMOND
That decision may not be up to you.
SAMUELS
Stand back, let's get him off the ramp.
[Kawalski is on his knees, looking a little distressed.]

O'NEILL
Kawalski, are you all right?
KAWALSKI
Yeah, I'm good.
(He stands and regains his composure)
HAMMOND
Colonel O'Neill, Major Kawalski, this sure-to-be-very-interesting debriefing for SG units 1 and 2 will be at 0730.
O'NEILL
Yes, sir.
SAMUELS
All right, let's get these people situated.
[They leave the Gate Room, leaving Teal'c, Carter, Daniel and O'Neill standing at the base of the ramp. Daniel looks back to the Gate.]

DANIEL
She's out there somewhere, Jack.
O'NEILL
I know. So's Skarra.
DANIEL
So what do we do?
O'NEILL
We find 'em.
[He leaves and the others follow, behind them we see that Kawalski is still standing at the top of the ramp, almost inside the Gate. He walks down the ramp towards the camera and as he gets close, his eyes glow.]

The Enemy Within

INT—SGC GATE ROOM

HAMMOND
Colonel O'Neill, is SG-1 ready to ship out?
O'NEILL
We are, sir.
HAMMOND
Then you have a go for a standard recon mission on P3A-575.
O'NEILL
Yes, sir.
[The doors open and Teal'c walks through.]

CARTER
The MALP reports conditions on the planet are favorable.
[Together, SG-1 walks up the ramp. They stop in front of the Gate. O'Neill looks across at his team.]

O'NEILL
Well?
[Together, SG-1 walk into the wormhole.]

Emancipation

EXT—PLANET—DAY

[The team approaches the Stargate.]

CARTER
So you think this new anesthesia will be a new miracle drug on Earth?
DANIEL
Well if it is, I bet somebody else will get the credit. We can never say where it came from.
O'NEILL
Damn. Guess I'm going to have to cancel that Oprah interview.
TEAL'C
What is an Oprah?

The Broca Divide

EXT—DIVIDING LINE BETWEEN DARK AND LIGHT—P3X-797

[The Touched, now cured, begin to em ergefromthedarkside.]

LEEDORA
(sees an older man)
Father.
[She runs and hugs him, crying. Tuplo sees Melosha and runs to hug her. There is a reunion between the Touched and Untouched. Tuplo and Melosha walk over to O'Neill and kneel before him.]

TUPLO
You have done it my lord. Thank you.
O'NEILL
We'll teach you how to take care of the rest
[He helps Tuplo and Melosha up. SG-1 and SG-3 begin to walk away]

[The Stargate is upright again. SG-1, Jamala, Connor and a few natives are hovering. Carter walks over to O'Neill.]

CARTER
Uh, I think we're ready.
O'NEILL
Think we should tell them to bury the Gate after were gone?
CARTER
Teal'c seems to think the Goa'ulds won't be back.
[Daniel joins them.]

DANIEL
Maybe we should come back and check on these guys.
CARTER
I think we've done enough, don't you?
[Daniel looks at her, then nods and walks away.]
O'NEILL
Something else on your mind?
CARTER
I had the chance to end this, Colonel. He literally asked me to do it.
O'NEILL
Killing a man is no badge of honor, Captain.
CARTER
I know.
O'NEILL
Look, I'm no expert on this thing.
(He waves Hanson's bible)
I generally read one commandment, and I think it's the first.
CARTER
"I am the Lord your God, and you shall take no other Gods before me?"
O'NEILL
(stops and makes a face)
Okay, it's not the first one. I'm talking about the "No Killing" one. No matter what the reason, every time you break it, you take one step closer to Hanson.
[He looks at Carter, who nods.]

CARTER
Thanks.
[O'Neill hands her the bible, then goes to where the rest of SG-1 and the villagers are talking.]

O'NEILL
(to Jamala)
So, you going to be all right?
JAMALA
Yes.
(He shakes O'Neill's hand)
The world outside the caves…it's very big, yes?
DANIEL
Yeah…it's bigger then you can imagine.
[Daniel and Jamala shake hands. Daniel walks and to DHD and dials Earth. Carter transmits the iris code. SG-1 and Connor walk through the Gate. The natives watch them go, Jamala at their head. He looks up at the orange dome, which is now keeping his people safe.]

Cold Lazarus

SGC—GATE ROOM—NIGHT
[O'NEILL and the ALIEN CHARLIE stand in front of the active Stargate. DANIEL, CARTER and TEAL'C are watch from the bottom of the ramp. O'NEILL walks up the ramp, stopping in front of the wormhole to look at them with a small smile.]

O'NEILL
Keep the lights on. I'll be back.
[O'NEILL reaches out for the ALIEN CHARLIE'S hand. CHARLIE puts his hand in O'NEILL's and together, they walk through the wormhole.]

The Nox

EXT—STARGATE CLEARING—DAY

[O'NEILL, TEAL'C, DANIEL and CARTER climb over the ridge. The Stargate is still missing.]

TEAL'C
This is where the Stargate should be.
[ANTEAUS appears in front of them.]

ANTEAUS
We sent your enemy through the doorway.
O'NEILL
They'll be back.
ANTEAUS
When you are gone we will bury it.
O'NEILL
They'll come in ships next time; they'll bring an army.
ANTEAUS
Perhaps.
[NAFRAYU appears next to ANTEAUS, alive and well.]

ANTAEUS
He wanted to wish you farewell.
O'NEILL
I'm glad you're okay.
NAFRAYU
And you. We sent your weapons back through the doorway.
O'NEILL
Yeah, speaking of the Stargate…
ANTEAUS
You fear for us, yes?
O'NEILL
Yes.
ANTEAUS
Why?
TEAL'C
It is our way that the strong defend the weak.
O'NEILL
We're afraid for you.
ANTEAUS
Before you go, O'Neill, there is something we would have you see.
[ANTEAUS waves his hand. Behind them, up in the sky, a floating city appears.]

O'NEILL
My God.
ANTEAUS
Fear not.
[Several Fenri circle the city, and the Stargate appears. There is a kawoosh, despite the lack of anyone pushing the DHD. They turn to see the Stargate, the wormhole already engaged.]

ANTEAUS
Maybe one day you will learn, that your way is not the only way.
[ANTEAUS and NAFRAYU vanish. O'NEILL looks from the spot they were standing back to the floating city.]

O'NEILL
Why didn't he tell us about this before?
DANIEL
I think, in their way, they did.
[The city vanishes.]

TEAL'C
It appears they possess a form of technology far greater than that of the Goa'uld.
CARTER
They looked so helpless…
DANIEL
And now they're going to bury the Stargate and we can never come back. We should've listened.
O'NEILL
'The very young do not always do as they're told.'
[DANIEL, TEAL'C and CARTER stare at O'NEILL.]

O'NEILL
Just a little something the Nox told me one time. Something worth taking home.
[They head into the wormhole, going home.]

Brief Candle

EXT—ARGOS—DAY

[KYNTHIA helps O'NEILL walk through the village. CARTER and DANIEL are at his side, TEAL'C walking a few paces behind.]

TEAL'C
Our tests indicate that your body has been cleansed of the machines that plagued you.
CARTER
I figure the immune system must attack them if they aren't operating.
DANIEL
(to Kynthia)
From now on, you and your people should age at a normal rate.
KYNTHIA
What about Jack?
O'NEILL
Me? Oh, I'll probably move to Florida, get into a little retirement home of some kind.
CARTER
(grinning)
You'd look pretty out of place there at your age.
O'NEILL
(offended)
Why? I look like my grandfather.
CARTER
'Look' is the operative word here. If our hypothesis is right, the nanocytes in your system were only meant to imitate aging. They weren't meant to start the process in a full-grown adult.
O'NEILL
What are you saying to me?
CARTER
Well, without these little buggers in your system to maintain the changes, you should return to normal within a week or two.
KYNTHIA
(overjoyed)
That is wonderful news.
[KYNTHIA helps O'NEILL sit, as his knees seem to give out abruptly.]

O'NEILL
I don't know. I was kinda looking forward to a little shuffleboard with the fellas.
[CARTER and DANIEL both smile, watching O'NEILL closely. TEAL'C looks confused.]

KYNTHIA
(sadly)
Then you are leaving?
[O'NEILL looks to his teammates, letting them know he would like a moment alone with KYNTHIA. CARTER motions to the others, indicating that they should follow her.]

KYNTHIA
You will not be staying with me then?
O'NEILL
No, I won't.
KYNTHIA
What will happen to us now if Pelops returns?
O'NEILL
I don't think that's going to happen. But just in case, we'll send some folks by now and again to check up on you.
KYNTHIA
(hopefully)
My heart would be glad if you were one of them.
O'NEILL
Sweet Kynthia, I've learned so much from you. I'll treasure every day of my life, because of you.
[Smiling, O'NEILL reaches up and caresses her face. KYNTHIA smiles sadly.]

KYNTHIA
For thousands of days?
O'NEILL
Sure hope so.
KYNTHIA
(laughing)
That is almost forever.
O'NEILL
Almost.
[As his team look on, O'NEILL leans in to give KYNTHIA a kiss on the cheek. KYNTHIA smiles, and O'NEILL laughs.]

EXT—CIMMERIA'S STARGATE

[Camera looking up at back of Hammer. O'Neill and Kendra walk around the Hammer.]

[b]Thor's Hammer

KENDRA
Now that the Hammer is lost, I'm not sure what we'll do.
O'NEILL
Ah, you should be all right. The Goa'uld don't know the Hammer was destroyed.
[Everyone is standing next to the Hammer.]

CARTER
Seal up the cave. If they come back at least they'll be put somewhere safe.
KENDRA
I want to thank you for helping me have the courage to face my greatest fears.
[She opens a pouch and takes out a rune stone.]

DANIEL
Thank you.
TEAL'C
We will never forget.
CARTER
And we'd like to come back.
DANIEL
Oh!
(running to the MALP)
I almost forgot.
(retrieves Sagan box and hands to Kendra)
Here. It's a gift. Actually it's for Thor, or his people in case they ever come back. It's all about our people, who we are, that we would like to be friends.
[It thunders. They all look up.]

KENDRA
Thor is pleased.
O'NEILL
That's great. Tell him we'd love to meet him someday. In person.
KENDRA
(nods)
It is safe for you to travel, you should go now.
O'NEILL
Daniel, you want to start dialing home. Before it starts raining?
DANIEL
Right.
[Daniel goes to the DHD, O'Neill and Carter following, and starts dialing. Kendra and Teal'c look at each other for a moment. Kendra is smiling. They nod to each other. Teal'c goes to join the rest of SG-1 by the DHD. We watch SG-1 enter the wormhole from a distance on a slight hill. Several men are scattered about, watching.]

The Torment of Tantalus

INT—SGC GATE ROOM

[The Stargate is revolving. From inside the control room, Daniel, Ernest, O'Neill, and Catherine look on at the coordinates for Ernest's planet are entered.]

DAVIS
Chevron Six encoded…Chevron Seven…will not engage.
[O'Neill and Catherine look down disappointedly. Daniel turns away from the window and sits down dejectedly.]

O'NEILL
Well, I think it's safe to say the place is gone.
ERNEST
(hopefully, to Daniel)
You still have my book.
CATHERINE
Captain Carter's working on a computer model right now.
O'NEILL
And here's the bright side: You're alive.
DANIEL
Yes.
(to Ernest)
Thanks to you.
ERNEST
Look at it this way: If you ever run into those aliens who made up the language, you can ask them what it means.
CATHERINE
You'd better let us know this time.
DANIEL
I will. I promise.
[Ernest grabs Daniel in a sudden embrace, and Daniel laughs. O'Neill then rises out of his chair.]

O'NEILL
Catherine! Hug me.
[Catherine laughs and embraces O'Neill.]

CATHERINE
Oh, Jack!
[Catherine lets go of O'Neill and looks at Ernest, who's gazing back fondly at her. They embrace warmly as O'Neill and Daniel look on appreciatively.]

The Enemy Within
Emancipation

*I first saw the CotG, Pt.1, scene on a fan website a few months ago---wow, what a great example of Jack and Daniel's friendship. A beautiful scene. Shame it was cut.....
The last scene for Enemy Within was SG-1's first mission as a team and I love it for that...
I've never been crazy about Emancipation, but the ending was--I think-- the first real display of classic SG-1 humor between them.....it's still one of my favorite scenes.

(Just as I thought I'd take a rest from posting for a while another really great tournament begins...can't resist this one!)

The Nox, The Broca Divide and Children of the Gods, part 1 are through

Now for season 1 episodes 12 - 22.

Bloodlines

EXT—CLEARED PATH UPHILL

[SG-1 come to the top of the hill and look down on the Stargate. Teal'c closes his helmet. SG-1 go down the hill following Bra'tac. A Jaffa guard and two priests see them coming.]

BRA'TAC
Behold my friends. The traitors.
PRIEST #1
Halt. Come no further.
BRA'TAC
I am to present my prisoners to Apophis himself.
PRIEST #1
You cannot pass, Bra'tac.
BRA'TAC
You know of me?
PRIEST #1
Of course, Master. You were once the greatest Jaffa warrior of all. But no one may pass until the palace guard arrives.
BRA'TAC
I understand. Then we wait.
[Bra'tac turns and fires his staff at their feet igniting the ground. O'Neill and Carter draw their weapons to help but Teal'c stops them. Bra'tac knocks down the Jaffa and both priests. One priest comes up behind him and he knocks him out again.]

BRA'TAC
Not bad for a man of 133.
O'NEILL
Not bad at all. Daniel?
DANIEL
Yeah.
[Daniel goes to the DHD to dial out.]

CARTER
What will you do? When the priests come to, they'll tell Apophis that you betrayed them.
BRA'TAC
I suppose, I will cross that bridge when I come to it.
[Carter and O'Neill move to the Stargate.]

TEAL'C
I lack the words to thank you, Bra'tac.
BRA'TAC
I thank you, Teal'c. I have another young warrior to teach of new worlds.
[The Gate engages. Bra'tac places his arm on Teal'c's shoulder.]

O'NEILL
Ten hut.
[O'Neill and Carter salute and Daniel waves. They then go through the Stargate. Teal'c waits, raises his staff weapon in salute and follows. As Bra'tac walks away, the Gate shuts down.]

Fire and Water

EXT—PLANET—BEACH—DAY

[The bubbles stop, and NEM walks toward TEAL'C. All three solders aim their weapons, ready to fire. Before they can say anything DANIEL bursts out of the water, gasping for air. O'NEILL, TEAL'C and CARTER look at him with startled surprise.]

DANIEL
Don't shoot!
[DANIEL coughs and swims to them. He stumbles out of the water and onto the beach, moving to stand before NEM.]

DANIEL
Nem, you have your answer. Now let us go.
[As DANIEL stares at him, pleading, NEM turns to look at his teammates. He looks back to DANIEL.]

NEM
You may go.
DANIEL
I'm sorry I couldn't give you the answer you wanted.
NEM
I am sorry also.
DANIEL
We could still become friends, your people…and…and mine.
CARTER
That's why we were here; we meant no harm.
NEM
Perhaps, in time.
DANIEL
Right.
[NEM turns back to look intently at DANIEL.]

NEM
And in time, Daniel, you will find…what fate Sha're.
[DANIEL nods uncertainly. The team watches silently as NEM heads back into the water. He dives back into the sea and disappears. DANIEL looks at his team. O'NEILL shakes his head, his sunglasses hiding his eyes. CARTER smiles. They walk to encircle him.]

DANIEL
Ah, this…this is a long story.
CARTER
Yeah, I'll bet!
O'NEILL
Tell us about it over Sushi?
[DANIEL stares, momentarily speechless, at O'NEILL, who's laughing.]

DANIEL
That's funny. Uh, I will, after I go get some sleep.
[DANIEL heads for the Stargate. His team walks around him, smiling.]

O'NEILL
Ah, home. Yeah about that apartment…
DANIEL
Oh, you didn't!
CARTER
The, um, day after the memorial service.
DANIEL
The memorial service?
CARTER
The colonel said some really nice things.
DANIEL
He…he did. He did?
[SG-1 walks across the dunes in the direction of the Stargate.]

Hathor

INT—SGC LOCKER ROOM

[Later. DR FRAISER, her arm in a sling, is bending over to the floor, taking samples of the gooey substance that dripped from the hot tub. CARTER is assisting her. O'NEILL DANIEL, and TEAL'C, in civilian clothing, enter the room.]

O'NEILL
Did you find anything?
DR FRAISER
Probably nothing we can use. Maybe we'll at least get a cellular level analysis on the Goa'ulds, maybe we even find some DNA information.
DANIEL
(Uncomfortably)
A lot of that will probably be mine. O'NEILL
Ew.
DANIEL
Yeah.
[HAMMOND enters. CARTER and DR FRAISER jump to their feet.]

CARTER
(Nervously)
General Hammond, sir.
HAMMOND
At ease, Captain. At ease, Doctor.
CARTER
Thank you sir. About your head, I'd like to explain that if I could.
HAMMOND
Captain, I'm putting you and Dr Fraiser up for a commendation medal.
CARTER
Well, thank you sir, but I can explain…(She stops in confusion, looking over at Fraiser)
You are?
HAMMOND
If you hadn't kept your wits about you and done whatever was necessary, we could have put this entire planet at risk. Good job, ladies.
[DR FRAISER smiles. CARTER looks relieved.]

[CARTER crosses room to CASSANDRA, who jumps up and wraps her legs around CARTER'S waist. They hug again.]

EXT—PARK

[DANIEL and CARTER are swinging CASSANDRA between them. TEAL'C is following. All are dressed in civilian clothing.]

DANIEL
You're getting a little heavy for this.
O'NEILL
(Calls from across park, where he's carrying a dog.)
Cassandra!
CARTER
Hey, there he is.
CASSANDRA
(Running across to O'Neill)
What's that?
O'NEILL
We have a rule here on Earth. Every kid has got to have a dog. This is a dog. And he's yours.
[O'NEILL hands the dog to CASSANDRA. CARTER, DANIEL and TEAL'C are sitting on a picnic table, watching O'NEILL and CASSANDRA interact.]

DANIEL
So, how sure were you really?
CARTER
I can't explain it, Daniel; I just knew.
TEAL'C
Mother's instinct, perhaps.
CARTER
(Grins.)
Subtle, but no.
Dr. Fraiser is going to take her until we can find qualified parents.
DANIEL
By qualified, you mean ones with the right security clearance.
CARTER
I wouldn't be surprised if Dr. Fraiser wants to keep her for herself. As long as Cassandra's happy.
TEAL'C
She appears to be.
CARTER
And I wasn't completely at ease until I learned the object was shrinking and being reabsorbed into her system.
(Cassandra comes over, carrying the dog.)
Hey!
CASSANDRA
Hey Samantha. See my new dog?
CARTER
Wow. Your new dog?
CASSANDRA
It's an Earth rule. Every kid has to have one. But I don't mind.
[CARTER raises her eyebrows and looks at O'NEILL.]

O'NEILL
Why don't I take the dog for a little walk.
(He takes the dog out of Cassandra's arms.)
C'mere. Teal'c? You know anything about dogs?
TEAL'C
Nothing.
[O'NEILL gestures, and TEAL'C and DANIEL follow him.]

CASSANDRA
When you find me a new home, will you come and visit me?
CARTER
You betcha. All the time.
CASSANDRA
That is, when you're on Earth.
CARTER
Right. Now, about that Cassandra…
CASSANDRA
I know. The Stargate is a secret; and I was born in a place called…Toronto?
CARTER
Right.
[CARTER and CASSANDRA share a smile of complete understanding.]

CASSANDRA
(Looks across park at swing set.)
What are those?
CARTER
Ah. Those are swings.
CASSANDRA
I never had any of those…in Toronto. They look like fun.
CARTER
They are. Come on.
[Hand in hand, CASSANDRA and CARTER head for the swings.]

Cor-ai

INT—COURTROOM

[Teal'c fires on Jaffa. He leaps to stop a Jaffa from firing on group of villagers, gets hit in leg with staff blast but takes out a Jaffa. Jaffa aims staff at Teal'c. O'Neill and Carter arrive.]

DANIEL
Oh, looks bad. Let's get him home.
TEAL'C
No.
[Teal'c stands up with rest of SG-1's help, gives his staff to Hanno.]

TEAL'C
It is midday. I am prepared to accept my punishment.
O'NEILL
Teal'c.
HANNO
You would save those who wish to kill you?
TEAL'C
I would save those who deserve to live.
HANNO
I have made a mistake. My memory was faulty. You are not the same man as he who murdered my father.
TEAL'C
I am the one.
HANNO
No. That Jaffa is dead. You have killed him. We have our own wounded to care for. I suggest you take your friend home.
[Teal'c takes staff from Hanno, bows his head to him and steps away.]

O'NEILL
We can help you defend yourselves.
HANNO
We would appreciate that.
[SG-1 is alone in the courtroom. O'Neill puts his hand on Teal'c's shoulder.]

INT—STARGATE ROOM

[Hammond, O'Neill and Carter enter. O'Neill and Carter join Daniel and Teal'c on the ramp.]

DANIEL
You did good, Daniel.
TEAL'C
What of Maybourne?
CARTER
Oohh, he's not a happy camper.
HAMMOND
There'll be hell to pay when he gets back to Washington.
[O'Neill moves to stand next to Daniel.]

O'NEILL
(to Daniel)
What?
DANIEL
Oh, just thinking what the little guy with funny hair once told us.
O'NEILL
The very young do not always do as they're told.
[Daniel turns to O'Neill and smiles.]

DANIEL
Yeah.
[The four members of SG-1 stand in a line, looking at the Stargate.]

INT—ICE CAVERN

[CARTER is strapped to a stretcher.]

DANIEL
Sam! Sam! Come on.
[CARTER slowly opens her eyes.]

DANIEL
She's going to be okay, you're going to be okay.
TEAL'C
As is Colonel O'Neill.
[O'NEILL is also strapped to a stretcher.]

HAMMOND
Let's get them in the chopper.
CARTER
…the Colonel…he's bleeding internally.
HAMMOND
We know, Captain, don't worry, he's going to be all right.
CARTER
General, you came through the Stargate for us…
HAMMOND
Not exactly, Captain.
(To one of the rescue team)
A team from the SGC will be arriving within the hour to secure this area. In the meantime let's get these people home.
[HAMMOND turns, his gaze falls upon the icy Stargate…]

Tin Man

INT—HARLAN'S COMPOUND: THE STARGATE

[SG-1 and robot SG-1 gather with Harlan at the Stargate.]

O'NEILL
So don't forget to bury the Gate when where gone.
ROBOT O'NEILL
Like that's something I would forget.
O'NEILL
Well.
[Both O'Neills shake hands.]

O'NEILL
See ya. And uh, you should have that looked at, it's…whoa.
[O'Neill points to the wound on Robot O'Neill's face.]

ROBOT O'NEILL
Have a good life.
O'NEILL
See ya.
[Robot Carter and Harlan wave as the real SG-1 team members step through the Gate.]

There But For the Grace of God

INT—P3R-233 ARTIFACT ROOM

[Daniel is lying on the floor in front of the mirror, clutching his arm. The mirror is dark.]

O'NEILL
Daniel!
[O'Neill races in and kneels down by Daniel. Carter and Teal'c follow.]

O'NEILL
(examining Daniel's shoulder wound.)
What the hell is this?
TEAL'C
It appears to have been caused by a staff weapon.
[Carter gently pulls a piece of paper out of Daniel's hand.]

CARTER
This looks like a Stargate address.
[O'Neill looks at Daniel.]

O'NEILL
All right. Let's get him back to Earth.
[O'Neill starts to pull him up, but Daniel suddenly clutches his arm.]

DANIEL
No, Jack!
(breathing heavily)
We're all in very big trouble.
[O'Neill, Teal'c, and Carter look at him and each other, puzzled.]

DANIEL
They're coming! They're coming.

[The SG-1 team members stand together, looking down at the Stargate.]

INT—STARGATE

Within the Serpent's Grasp

INT—KLOREL'S SHIP, CORRIDOR AND PELTAC

[Carter and Daniel approach the peltac, where Jaffa are holding O'Neill and Teal'c captive. Carter sets off a smoke grenade in the corridor. Some Jaffa come to investigate, and Carter and Daniel fire on them, taking them out. They move into the peltac, and O'Neill and Teal'c join the fight in hand-to-hand combat. They take out all the Jaffa.]

[Klorel enters and grabs Daniel, whose gun skitters across the floor. Klorel then begins using the ribbon device on Daniel, who drops to his knees and grabs Klorel's arm, but to no effect.]

TEAL'C
Colonel O'Neill.
O'NEILL
Yeah, gimme a second, here.
TEAL'C
I cannot.
[They all look out of the view screen, O'Neill still kneeling by Skaara's body.]

CARTER
Earth.
DANIEL
I thought you said we couldn't be there for at least a year.
CARTER
I guess this ship can go way faster than ten times the speed of light.
[They all gather to stand and look at the view screen.]

CARTER
Colonel, we saw the death gliders. They're prepping for launch, sir.
[Camera shows all of SG-1, then zooms backward to show them through the view screen from the exterior of the ship.]

So,

HAMMOND
Master Bra'tac. Words cannot express our gratitude.
BRA'TAC
You are Hammond of Texas?
HAMMOND
I am.
BRA'TAC
Your warriors serve you well.
HAMMOND
I know they will be sorry to see you return home so soon.
BRA'TAC
I must return before word of our rebellion reaches Chulak. My place is there.
[Bra'tac grasps O'Neill's arms in farewell, before turning to Teal'c. He touches Teal'c's face.]

AIRMAN
This way, sir. We want to ask a few questions before you leave.
[Bra'tac leaves with the Airman.]

O'NEILL
Not bad at all.
HAMMOND
SG-1—there's someone who'd like to see you.
[Daniel makes his way from the back of the crowd.]

DANIEL
She's still the same.
CASSANDRA
Janet said that the Goa'uld left after it died.
DANIEL
Well, that's right. Um, it died and her body's absorbing it. She's the same old Samantha Carter. Same person we've always known.
O'NEILL
(rubbing the girl's arm)
Cassie, she's just a little sad right now. But I'll bet she cheers up when she sees you.
(patting her arm)
Come on.
[Cassandra enters the hospital room and walks to Carter's bedside. She turns, seeing O'Neill, Fraiser and Daniel watching from the doorway. She climbs onto the side of the bed and lightly touches Carter's shoulder.]

CASSANDRA
Sam, it's me.
[She gets no response. Cassie easily turns Carter over and she looks up with extremely tired and sad eyes. She looks on the verge of tears. Cassie smiles reassuringly.]

CASSANDRA
You're going to be okay.
[Fraiser smiles at O'Neill. Carter exhales sharply, closing her eyes for a moment before looking back up at the young girl.]

Prisoners

INT—SGC CONTROL ROOM

[Hammond rushes in and runs up the stairs. O'Neill, Teal'c and Daniel are close behind.]

HAMMOND
Abort countdown. Get a team to the Gate room.
FEMALE TECHNICIAN
It's sealed, sir.
HAMMOND
Unseal it. Colonel O'Neill, effect the manual override.
[O'Neill nods his agreement and starts to type at a keyboard while more chevrons lock. Carter and Dr. Greene run into the room.]

DANIEL
(to Carter)
Where's Linea?
DR. GREENE
We came to, she was gone.
FEMALE TECHNICIAN
(as chevrons finish locking)
Wormhole has been activated.
HAMMOND
You were unconscious?
DR. GREENE
Only for a few minutes.
FEMALE TECHNICIAN
The abort command is not responding, sir.
[A monitor counts down from 34 seconds. Carter takes a seat at one of the computers to help. The blast door raises. Linea is on the ramp at the event horizon.]

O'NEILL
It won't take our code, sir.
HAMMOND
Close the iris.
COMPUTER VOICE
Self-destruct in 20 seconds.
[Linea looks back from the event horizon.]

HAMMOND
Try shutting the whole system down.
CARTER
We can't sir. She's gone into the computer. She got the coordinates. Everything.
[Linea stands there still, then turns and walks into the event horizon.]

FEMALE TECHNICIAN
(shaking her head)
The codes have been erased.
COMPUTER VOICE
5…
CARTER
This doesn't make any sense.
[O'Neill looks at her.]

COMPUTER VOICE
4…3…2…1
[The Gate shuts down, and they all wait for a few moments, but nothing happens. Hammond looks at O'Neill, and O'Neill to Hammond.]

O'NEILL
(To the technician)
Redial those coordinates. Request permission to go after her.
HAMMOND
(simultaneously)
Granted.
[Suddenly, the room darkens as the system blacks out.]

FEMALE TECHNICIAN
The entire system just crashed.
O'NEILL
Well, get it back up!
CARTER
Colonel?
[Carter's computer screen displays a message being typed out. The message says "Thank you for your kindness. All debts have now been paid." They stare dumbfounded at the screen.]

CARTER
(anxious)
We let her out.
DANIEL
The Destroyer of Worlds.
[They all look out at the darkened Gate room ominously. Fade to black]

RESIDENT #1
(To O'Neill)
Again, we thank you. You have given us a whole new world of beauty and future experiences.
O'NEILL
Well you've still got a lot of work to do, but we'll send along some supplies to get you started.
THE KEEPER
(Stalking between the group.)
They are ruining everything.
(He glares at O'Neill.)
Do you know they are actually picking the flowers?
[He stalks off.]

O'NEILL
(To Daniel)
This is real this time, isn't it?
[The Keeper utters noises of outrage, gasping at what the residents are doing in the garden.]

THE KEEPER
(To residents)
Do not pull that!!
[Residents are picking flowers.]

THE KEEPER
You are ruining the garden!
[He turns and glowers at Daniel and O'Neill.]

THE KEEPER
I told you they will ruin everything. First, the garden. Next, the entire planet!
[O'Neill and Daniel look at each other and smile.]

THE KEEPER
(To residents.)
You are ruining the garden!
O'NEILL
(Cheerfully)
'S go!
(Carter hands him his weapon.)
Thank you, ma'am.
[The team head for the Stargate as the Keeper bites his fist, completely outraged.]

INT—THRONE ROOM

[Shyla is leaning against the sarcophagus, crying. Daniel walks in behind her.]

SHYLA
I did not believe you would ever return.
DANIEL
I’m sorry…about your father…about everything.
SHYLA
The sarcophagus could not help him anymore.
[Shyla stands up and faces Daniel.]

SHYLA
You never did love me did you?
DANIEL
I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t care.
SHYLA
I don't deserve to live after what I’ve done to you.
DANIEL
Yes, you do. Your people need you. You may still be able to lead them without turning into what your father became.
SHYLA
How?
DANIEL
You can’t use this anymore. It’s going to be bad. Trust me. But you don’t have to do this alone.
[Shyla walks to the end of the sarcophagus and picks up a staff weapon. Daniel joins her. She aims and fires, destroying the sarcophagus in a blue electrical storm. Daniel takes the staff weapon and hugs her.]

Thor's Chariot

EXT—CIMMERIAN ROAD

[SG-1 are now alone on the road. The Jaffa are gone. The destruction of the pyramids is complete and the encampment is empty. Behind the team, a light shines down and deposits Gairwyn on the road. Smiling, she walks up easily to the team.]

GAIRWYN
The Etins are gone. Thor sends his thanks. It was your help that made this possible.
DANIEL
Well, to be honest with you, I think we got kinda lucky.
GAIRWYN
He told me to give you a message to satisfy your curiosity. I'm to tell you he's a member of a species who have visited your world often. They are a friend to all, protector of all, except the Goa'uld, with whom they are at war.
O'NEILL
Well, that's very nice. But I'd still like to meet the old guy.
GAIRWYN
Well, he said that, like us, you're still much too young.
[SG-1 smile, knowingly.]

GAIRWYN
For us, there is still much to rebuild. Thor has promised to leave an Asgard teacher behind to help us.
TEAL'C
Then Cimmeria will be a safe world again. That is good.
GAIRWYN
Yes, it is. I'm to tell you that Thor's new Hammer will make an exception for the one called Teal'c. You are welcome here anytime.
[Their attention is drawn once again to the Asgard mothership in the sky.]

INT—GATEROOM

CARTER
Sir? Sir, I don't know if what we are about to try is a good idea or not, but you have the right to know. You might not survive it.
[Carter holds O'Neill's hand. He gives it a squeeze. She pulls out the IV to stop the medication. She backs up and joins Hammond and Teal'c behind the orb.]

CARTER
Okay, Teal'c.
[Teal'c raises his staff to fire at the orb. He fires and the energy goes through and O'Neill is shocked.]

CARTER
Again.
[Teal'c shoots and again the energy is absorbed.]

CARTER
We have to. Again.
[Teal'c fires the third shot and Carter runs to check on O'Neill.]

CARTER
No pulse.
[A few seconds later O'Neill's head comes up.]

O'NEILL/ALIEN
Good morning, campers.
[O'Neill's voice sounds different and his speech is slower. Hammond walks over to him.]

O'NEILL/ALIEN
This is truly a strange feeling.
CARTER
Colonel?
O'NEILL/ALIEN
Yes, he is here.
HAMMOND
Who else we are talking too?
O'NEILL/ALIEN
We are also here.
HAMMOND
My name is…
O'NEILL/ALIEN
Hammond, yes. O'Neill knows.
HAMMOND
Then you should also know we mean you no harm.
O'NEILL/ALIEN
You awoke us.
HAMMOND
We have only recently become aware of your existence.
O'NEILL/ALIEN
You would have returned us to our former world.
TEAL'C
We believed you were a threat to us.
DANIEL
We feared you.
O'NEILL/ALIEN
And your fear would have destroyed us. Millennia ago our world was dying. We could no longer live there. For this reason, we created the orb.
DANIEL
Where you slept for a hundred thousand years.
O'NEILL/ALIEN
Yes, Daniel.
DANIEL
Waiting for someone to come along, like us, and take you through the Stargate.
O'NEILL/ALIEN
So it was written on the orb. Once exposed to the atmosphere of a living world, we went forth
DANIEL
And multiplied.
O'NEILL/ALIEN
So it was written.
PA SYSTEM
Autoself destruct in four minutes.
O'NEILL/ALIEN
We can not go back.
HAMMOND
We can not allow you to stay.
O'NEILL/ALIEN
O'Neill feels this as well. However, you have allowed us no alternatives.
CARTER
General, we're almost out of time.
HAMMOND
This place, admittedly out of our ignorance, is about to be destroyed by an explosion.
O'NEILL/ALIEN
Such energy only serves to nourish us. We will multiple and consume your world.
HAMMOND
If you would allow us to restore our communications, we could stop that from happening. We would survive.
O'NEILL/ALIEN
O'Neill desires this as well. He wishes to live. But what of us?
DANIEL
P4G-881! It's primordial, lots of oxygen and sunlight. Like this world was a quarter of a billion years ago.
CARTER
Sir, we can't open the Stargate without the computers.
O'NEILL/ALIEN
You would send us there? Through your Stargate?
HAMMOND
We would.
O'NEILL/ALIEN
For what reason?
HAMMOND
So that we both may survive.
[O'Neill's head falls back with a little gasp.]

DANIEL
We'll take you there ourselves, Please!
[All the power is lost in the control room.]

DAVIS
Everything just shut down!
HAMMOND
God help us.
PA SYSTEM
Autoself destruct in two minutes.
The computers start to light back up again.

DAVIS
Sir, Sir…I think the computers are rebooting!
HAMMOND
Start dialing P4G-881 as soon as they are up.
DAVIS
Yes, sir.
[Carter and Hammond run into the control room as the stargate starts to dial.]

PA SYSTEM
Autoself destruct in one minute and thirty seconds.
[O'Neill's head comes back up.]

DAVIS
Chevron one engaged.
[The spike starts to remove itself from the wall and O'Neill.]

DAVIS
Chevron two engaged.
[O'Neill stands up]

DAVIS
Chevron three engaged.
[O'Neill steps down the ladder]

DAVIS
Chevron four engaged.
[O'Neill walks to the orb.]

DAVIS
Chevron five engaged.
PA SYSTEM

DAVIS
Chevron six engaged.
[The orb continues to glow and the alien organism starts to retract into the orb along with the spikes.]

DAVIS
Chevron seven locked.
[O'Neill walks up the ramp with the orb in his hand]

PA SYSTEM
Autoself destruct in thirty seconds.
[O'Neill pushes the orb through the event horizon.]

PA SYSTEM
Autoself destruct aborted
[Carter runs to where Teal'c and Daniel are already with O'Neill at the ramp, helping him sit up.]

O'NEILL
Nice work.
TEAL'C
It is good to see you alive and well.
DANIEL
Welcome back, Jack.
CARTER
Thought you were gone for good, sir.
O'NEILL
Wild horses, Captain.
[The three of them help O'Neill walk down the ramp.]

HAMMOND
Teal'c, you have a go!
DREY'AUC
(To the team)
I must thank you all again.
(She shakes hands with Carter)
I would very much like to stay and get to know you better.
DANIEL
Well, you wouldn't have much of a life here. You'd be virtual prisoners.
CARTER
But you're welcome in the Land of Light and Tuplo's waiting on the other side. They're good people.
O'NEILL
Yep, and they got tons of wide-open spaces where you can play and misbehave.
[He hands Rya'c a baseball glove.]

RYA'C
W-what is it?
[Rya'c puts the glove on his head like a hat, while the others look on, amused.]

O'NEILL
Well, I guess I'll have to come visit and explain a few things.
[O'Neill takes the hat off his head and puts a ball in it and places them both back in his hands.]

TEAL'C
(To O'Neill)
I shall return.

INT—ABYDOS—GATE ROOM

[Teal'c and Daniel enter the pyramid Gate room. Teal'c is still in Horus guard armor. He is pushing Daniel ahead of his as if he's his prisoner.]

TEAL'C
Kel shak, Heru-ur. The Serpent guards of Apophis have taken the child.
HERU'UR
(Examining Daniel)
Who is this human?
TEAL'C
He claims his people are the Tau'ri, enemies of Apophis.
HERU'UR
(With disbelief)
You? Among the warriors who defeated Apophis?
DANIEL
As a matter of fact, I was. The Tau'ri are stronger than you think. An alliance would prove extremely useful to both of us against our common enemy.
HERU'UR
(Amused)
Alliance? You are nothing. Your world is nothing. Once I have conquered Apophis, I will make slaves of your people. You will serve me.
DANIEL
No, I don't think so.
HERU'UR
(Irritated)
Kneel before your god!
[Daniel does not act immediately and Teal'c whacks Daniel on the back of the legs, and he falls to his knees.]

DANIEL
Uhh!
[Heru'ur regards him disgustedly. Holding out his ribbon device, he makes as if he's going to use it on Daniel when the Stargate begins to activate behind him.]

TEAL'C
My lord, the Stargate!
[Heru'ur turns to look upon the Gate.]

HERU'UR
Apophis comes, stand ready.
[Teal'c joins the other Horus guards to stand before the Stargate while Heru'ur stands by and watches Daniel. The vortex shoots in and Teal'c shoves the Horus guard next to him into it as Heru'ur watches. The Teal'c grabs his zat and shoots one of the guards. The last one shoot his staff at Teal'c and it appears to graze Teal'c shoulder. Teal'c raises his zat and shoots the last Horus guard but falls back against the wall. Heru'ur activates his personal shield, just as O'Neill and Carter emerge from the Stargate. They're a bit shocked at what they've stumbled upon.]

HERU'UR
(Holding up his ribbon device)
Tau'ri, kree!
O'NEILL
(O'Neill and Carter run for cover)
What the hell?
[They duck for cover near Teal'c, while Daniel jumps up and pushes away Heru'ur. As O'Neill and Carter are safe, Heru'ur strikes Daniel who falls to the fall.]

O'NEILL
Cover me!
[Carter stands and fires off her zat at the two stunned Horus guards. Another shot and both disintegrate. O'Neill comes out firing his weapon at Heru'ur whose personal shield prevents the bullets from penetrating. O'Neill stops firing his weapon, and Heru'ur is smug.]

HERU'UR
You dare challenge me?
[He raises his hand with the ribbon device and aims it at O'Neill.]

O'NEILL
I was thinking about it.
[He pulls a knife from its sheath and throws it into the palm of Heru-ur's hand, piercing the ribbon device and causing it to spark.]

HERU'UR
(In pain)
You will pay for this insolence!
[The Goa'uld activates the transport rings. They descend then take Heru'ur with them as they ascend again. Daniel is coming to his senses and Teal'c has deactivated his helmut.]

CARTER
Teal'c?
O'NEILL
Somebody explain to me what just happened?
TEAL'C
It is a lengthy tale, O'Neill.
O'NEILL
Long story, Teal'c.
[He goes over to see about Daniel. Teal'c and Carter follow him.]

CARTER
Good thing you remembered the shield's deflection capability's directly proportional to the amount of kinetic energy directed at it.
O'NEILL
(Looking at her as he gives Daniel a hand)
Right.
(To Daniel)
We should get out of here.
[The Stargate starts dialing up again. ]

DANIEL AND TEAL'C TOGETHER
Apophis
O'NEILL
(Incredulous)
What?
TEAL'C
We must cover ourselves.
[SG-1 duck behind cover. Momentarily, the Stargate engages. Two serpent guards emerge, followed by Apophis and five other Jaffa. Daniel and Teal'c, O'Neill and Carter watch from their hiding place.]

APOPHIS
Jaffa! Shal tek!
[A Jaffa goes back to dial the Gate and Amaunet stares directly at Daniel. Teal'c seems stunned that she's not said anything.]

APOPHIS
(Holding out his hand)
Come home with me, my queen.
[They begin to leave and Amaunet again looks directly at Daniel and continues on. O'Neill looks at Daniel as Apophis, Amaunet and their guards go through the Stargate. It soon disengages. SG-1 then emerge from their hiding places.]

CARTER
Sir, there's still a Goa'uld ship on top of us.
O'NEILL
Dial us home Captain, please.
[Carter dials the Gate. Daniel can only stare helplessly at the Gate.]

O'NEILL
(A hand on Daniel's shoulder)
Let's go home.
[He moves on, and Teal'c also lays a hand on Daniel, then moves to the Stargate followed by Carter. After a moment, Daniel follows.]

Bane

INT—ABANDONED BUILDING

[Ally is playing "cop" in the building with her water gun. She sneaks around a corner and is surprised to see Daniel and a fully-recovered Teal'c standing there. Teal'c is smiling warmly at her.]

ALLY
Teal'c!
[Taking off her sunglasses excitedly, she runs up to him.]

ALLY
Hi!
TEAL'C
(Grinning.)
Greetings, Ally.
ALLY
You're okay.
TEAL'C
(giving a slight nod)
Thanks to you I am feeling much better.
ALLY
Aw, man, it was no sweat. You look way better. I guess you can't really tell me what happened…all that top-secret, James Bond stuff, right?
TEAL'C
That is correct. To show my gratitude, I have brought you a new weapon.
[Teal'c holds up a huge Super-Soaker water gun, and Ally gasps, her eyes practically pop out of her head.]

TEAL'C
One with increased range and firepower.
ALLY
Wicked! This is so cool! Have any time to play?
DANIEL
Uh…actually we—
[A large stream of water suddenly blasts Teal'c in the chest as Ally pulls the trigger on her new toy. Teal'c slowly looks down at the wet spot on his chest while a musing Daniel wipes a little water out of his own eye, which had been hit by some of the splash. Ally giggles and runs off.]

DANIEL
Guess we shouldn't have loaded it, huh?
[Teal'c pulls out some sunglasses and puts them on, while Daniel wipes away more water on his face. Teal'c then turns to Daniel.]

TEAL'C
How else could she defend herself?
[Teal'c then turns his water gun on Daniel and fires point-blank range into Daniel's chest. Daniel gasps lightly at the shock of the cold water on his chest as Teal'c takes off down the hall after Ally.]

DANIEL
(Dryly.)
How else?
[Daniel wipes his eye again, then pulls his tee-shirt away from his chest and flaps it rapidly, shaking out the water.]

The Tok'ra, part 1

INT—TOK'RA TUNNELS—COUNCIL CHAMBERS

[They walk into the Council Chambers escorted by guards. It's like the other rooms, but it has a large, shiny table in it. ]

GARSHAW
This Chamber is newly grown. Until now we had no reason to convene the Council of Tok'ra.
CARTER
So this is some sort of accelerated crystal growth?
GARSHAW
That is correct. We have learned to pattern the natural tendencies of the crystal.
CARTER
Like a geode.
GARSHAW
People of the Tau'ri, allow me to introduce the Grand Council of the Tok'ra.
[The Council consists of Cordesh and five other more colourfully clothed people. ]

O'NEILL
Hiya folks, nice to meetcha.
DANIEL
Uh, we're very grateful. We're representatives of a planet called Earth.
TEAL'C
It is an honour.
CORDESH
The council has reviewed your proposal of an alliance between our peoples.
CARTER
And?
FEMALE TOKRA
We would like you to understand our situation. We are an illegal resistance group within the Goa'uld. We are the most hunted, most hated enemies of the System Lords.
O'NEILL
Hey, we haven't made too many friends along the way either.
TEAL'C
The secrets of the Tok'ra would never be revealed. It is not the way of the Tau'ri.
CORDESH
Not intentionally. But you might be followed to us, you might be tortured into revealing our whereabouts or a spy might be introduced into your midst.
FEMALE TOK'RA
We would like to know what you have to offer us that is of sufficient value to justify our exposure.
O'NEILL
Well, I think we've got a lot of things.
TEAL'C
The Tau'ri have become quite advanced.
DANIEL
I'm sure we have something you could use.
GARSHAW
Please, give us an example.
O'NEILL
Sure. Daniel.
DANIEL
Er, well, I mean, after all, we…we have the same goals in mind.
CARTER
Perhaps there's some technology that could be of use.
CORDESH
Technology other than our own is useless to us. We are infiltrators. We work from within the Goa'uld. Therefore it is important that we appear to be Goa'uld.
[Another Tok'ra enters the Chamber and whispers to Garshaw. ]

GARSHAW
(Angrily)
Bring them in!
(To SG-1)
What are your people planning?
O'NEILL
Beg your pardon?
GARSHAW
The Chaapa-ai just activated, and brought forth these!
[SG-3 are led in weaponless and looking sheepish.]

CARTER
SG-3.
O'NEILL
Colonel Makepeace? What are you doing here?
MAKEPEACE
General Hammond sent us to extract Captain Carter.
CARTER
Why?
MAKEPEACE
I'm afraid it's your father, Captain. He's in the hospital in a serious condition.
O'NEILL
You have to let her go home.
GARSHAW
I'm sorry, I cannot do that.
O'NEILL
Why not?
GARSHAW
I'm afraid we have made our decision. We have decided not to accept your request for an alliance.
CORDESH
Therefore you shall be our guests until such time as we decide to move to another planet.
O'NEILL
What?
GARSHAW
I'm sure you understand with your knowledge of this planet, you have become a security risk. We cannot allow you to leave until we have moved somewhere else that you do not know about.
DANIEL
Well surely as Tok'ra you're more compassionate than that? Captain Carter's father is dying, I mean at least let her go.
CORDESH
She is the highest risk of all. She contains the memory of Jolinar of Malk-shur.
TEAL'C
We are not the only ones who have knowledge of this planet. Those we left behind on the Tau'ri also possess this knowledge.
O'NEILL
As evidenced by our friends here.
[Indicating SG-3.]

GARSHAW
It is our wish that your lack of return will convince them that we are Goa'uld and not Tok'ra.
DANIEL
You want them to think that we're dead.
O'NEILL
Well that kinda sucks.
GARSHAW
I'm sorry. We will try to make you as comfortable as possible.

My votes:

Secrets
Bane (end is the only great thing about this episode)
Prisoners

*I'll always love the way Jack, Sam and Teal'c react when they see Daniel is still alive in Serpent's Lair---really touching moment. Space monkey, indeed....

*Even though I knew the SGC and everyone there weren't going to explode in a million tiny pieces (everyone knows self-destructs never reach zero:)), I still felt the tension at the end of MiaB ---good ending.

*I love the end of Secrets because of the un-goa'uld-like way Shar'e/Amaunet deliberately looks at Daniel yet doesn't make his presence known to Apophis....it was unexpectedly touching. (My theory is that Amaunet was impressed with the love between her host and Daniel and let him go because of it. On the lighter side, I've always been amazed that Shar'e/Amaunet could go through a painful labor, give birth and then appear a short while later looking so glammed-up! She did a lot better than I did, lol.)

Bane *It should have a chance to win something for a change :D*

I’d have voted Need if it had been the Jack/Daniel scene, but alas that wasn’t how the ep ended.

[O'Neill, Hammond, and Garshaw look on as Carter, Jacob, and Martouf fall through the Gate landing on the ramp. A couple of Marine guards assist them to their feet, and they all walk into the SGC. Jacob/Selmak approaches Hammond.]

SELMAK
I must give you thanks. You have saved my life and that of my new host. We thank you.
GARSHAW
This is wonderful news.
HAMMOND
Yes. Can we talk to your host?
[Jacob bows his head, then clears his throat, looking around sheepishly.]

JACOB
So when the little fella inside me is talking, do I sound like she does?
TEAL'C
That is correct.
JACOB
It's strange. I can feel myself talking, but it's not me saying the words. You know?
O'NEILL
Don't know. Take your word for it.
DANIEL
How do you feel?
JACOB
Well, considering I got one of those things inside me, pretty damn good!
[Teal'c looks on approvingly.]

JACOB
Listen, George. Because of this blending thing, I already know everything there is to know about the Tok'ra. You made the right call.
[O'Neill is smiling. Martouf and Carter, too.]

HAMMOND

(Smiling)
I hope so.
JACOB
I would be proud to serve as liaison between the Earth and these people.
HAMMOND
Good. Well, on that note, perhaps you can ask them to come with me to do a little debriefing.
GARSHAW
I'm afraid we cannot. We must go.
[Hammond is taken aback.]

TEAL'C
You are safe here.
GARSHAW
Because of the spy, the Goa'uld may already be at the site the Tok'ra have moved to.
CARTER
You can't stay a little longer?
MARTOUF
No, we must go quickly and stop the tunnels there before they are grown.
GARSHAW
We must move the Tok'ra to yet another new home. Do you not have a dialing device here?
O'NEILL
Yeah, we slapped a little one together.
GARSHAW
Hmm, you made it yourself, impressive. Will you show it to me? I would like to put in the coordinates myself.
HAMMOND
This way.
[Hammond leads them out all out of the Gate room. Carter and Martouf walk together.]

MARTOUF
(To Carter)
I give you my word, I will watch over you father as if he were my own.
[The Stargate begins dialing.]

CARTER
Thank you.
MARTOUF
I look forward to seeing you again.
CARTER
So do I.
[Martouf walks away to stand before the Gate. Jacob approaches his daughter.]

JACOB
It's ironic, ain't it?
CARTER
What?
JACOB
I was trying to find you a better assignment and you didn't need it. Now you've found me the best assignment an old soldier could dream up. Thanks, kid.
CARTER
You're welcome. Do you have to go so soon?
JACOB
Yeah. I have to go. Apparently, I'm the oldest and wisest among us.
CARTER
(amused)
Oh jeez.
[The Stargate engages. Garshaw enters the Gate room again with O'Neill accompanying her.]

GARSHAW
There will come a time when the Tok'ra and the people of the Tau'ri will destroy the Goa'uld System Lords.
O'NEILL
This'll be a good day.
[Daniel enters the room approaching Garshaw with a Sagan Institute box.]

DANIEL
Um…
[he hands her the box.]

DANIEL
…this box has a signature in it we can recognise. Just send it through the Gate and we'll know you want to contact us.
GARSHAW
Thank you. Come, Selmak.
[Jacob and Carter embrace warmly.]

JACOB
Selmak says, let me see if I can translate this, don't call us, we'll call you.
[O'Neill smiles. Martouf, Garshaw and Jacob walk up the ramp and enter the wormhole. Carter watches as the Stargate closes and sighs sadly.]

Sprits

INT—SGC—GATE ROOM

[They all suddenly appear. Xe-ls turns to walk up the ramp.]

XE-LS
T'akaya, destroy this place.
DANIEL
Wait! You promised to listen.
XE-LS
(mockingly)
What they don't know won't hurt them. Isn't that what your leader said, Colonel? Their word means nothing.
T'AKAYA
And so would mine…if I were to do as you asked. I have made a promise to this one…so that we could save your life.
XE-LS
I am listening, but I do not guarantee that your words will sway me from punishing you.
O'NEILL
For what?
XE-LS
For trying to deceive the Salish and steal our ke…and for attempting to destroy the trust and faith between Tonane's people and my own.
O'NEILL
(clears his throat)
OK. I give you my word that we'll give up this mining operation.
T'AKAYA
Even if we could trust you, your superiors will not be swayed by your oath.
O'NEILL
So, don't take my word. Shut down your Stargate. That way, no one will be able to come to your planet unless you allow it.
[T'akaya and Xe-ls look at each other.]

T'AKAYA
Star travel is of no use to us. Let us close down the Gate.
XE-LS
This does not erase the second transgression.
O'NEILL
What? Exposing who you are to Tonane? You've been posing as gods, for heaven's sake.
T'AKAYA
Is that what you believe we do? When we removed the Goa'uld from our planet a millennia ago, we adapted our form to those of the Salish spirits so that we could protect and coexist along side them in harmony, without interfering in their natural evolution…and now, because of you, that harmony has been broken.
XE-LS
In time, they will fear us, and use the ke we scatter through the rivers and forge weapons against us.
DANIEL
No. The Salish people you so honor, came from this world. Even now they value the natural world far more than technology. Trust them.
O'NEILL
If you really do respect Tonane's people, you shouldn't be posing as their spirits. Trust them.
T'AKAYA
Our friend, Tonane, is wise. And so is our friend, Jack.
XE-LS
So he is.
[Xe-ls bangs his hands together again and Tonane reappears.]

O'NEILL
Tonane…Xe-ls. Xe-ls…Tonane.
TONANE
So, you're Xe-ls?
T'AKAYA
And I am T'akaya. We are honored by the names your forefathers have given us.
XE-LS
You view us now in our true form…but this is only one of many forms we can take. Our friends from this world call us aliens. You call us spirits. From now on, Tonane, you and your people may view us in the form which pleases you best.
TONANE
You have always been kind to my people. So, whatever makes you happy.
T'AKAYA
I think this form makes us happy.
[The Gate begins d ialingout.]

TONANE
Does this mean I can go home now?
O'NEILL
Uh…yeah, I think it does.
TONANE
(takes O'Neill's hand)
Goodbye, Jack.
[The Gate opens and Tonane walks up the ramp.]

DANIEL
Oh, wait! Um, what about our friends?
T'AKAYA
Your friends are right beside you, Daniel.
[Xe-ls thumps his hands together and everyone appears back in the Gate room.]

HAMMOND
(confused)
Colonel O'Neill?
[O'Neill watches as all the spirits and Tonane enter the wormhole.]

O'NEILL
Um…I'll explain it all later, sir.
[Hammond nods his consent and turns to see Tonane before he enters the Gate. O'Neill waves and Tonane walks into the circle of water.]

Touchstone

INT—STORAGE FACILITY AT AREA 51

[Two men are welding an iris in place. Major Reynolds and Colonel Maybourne are standing beside the crate. SG-1 along with General Hammond are standing a little ways back. O'Neill approaches to Maybourne taking off his sunglasses.

O'NEILL
This put you out of a job, Maybourne?
MAYBOURNE
(smugly)
Oh! You'd be surprised. Strange things happen in high places, Colonel.
O'NEILL
Don't I know it.
MAYBOURNE
People get reassigned. So does property. Artifacts get misplaced, orders change. Every day's a new day.
[Maybourne walks away smugly.]

A Matter of Time

INT—SGC INFIRMARY

[White fades to an overhead light over an infirmary bed. Monitors beep as Fraiser moves the light out of the way and Daniel joins Fraiser by O'Neill's bedside as he is finally awake. A bandage is in place on O'Neill's neck where the glass cut him. Daniel is self-hugging. Carter and Hammond move in behind Daniel.]

O'NEILL
(weakly)
I made it.
HAMMOND
We all made it, thanks to you and Captain Carter.
O'NEILL
How?
CARTER
Teal'c managed to pull you far enough away from the bomb before it went off.
O'NEILL
(To Teal'c)
Thanks.
TEAL'C
You are welcome.
CARTER
The majority of the blast energy went right where it was supposed to. The wormhole jumped to P2A-270 and once it did that, we shut it off.
O'NEILL
Good thinking, Captain.
CARTER
Thank you, sir.
HAMMOND
A new trinium-strengthened iris is being installed right now. We should be back in business in no time.
O'NEILL
What day is it?
[Daniel looks at Carter then back at O'Neill.]

DANIEL
Well, this might be a little difficult to accept, but since you reported for duty yesterday, two weeks have actually gone by.
O'NEILL
Two weeks? Think I'll sleep in.
HAMMOND
(Smiles warmly)
You do that.

The Fifth Race

INT—SGC—EMBARKATION ROOM

[Daniel and Teal'c are at the base of the ramp as O'Neill approaches them. O'Neill regards them with a slight smile.]

O'NEILL
I'm back.
DANIEL
What happened?
TEAL'C
Do you still possess the knowledge of the Ancients?
O'NEILL
(sighs)
Nope. Don't remember a thing.
(to Daniel)
But you know that meaning of life stuff?
[Daniel nods slightly.]

O'NEILL
I think we're going to be all right.
[O'Neill smiles at his friends.]

Serpent's Song

INT—SGC—CONTROL ROOM

[Martouf types something in the keyboard at the Command console. Carter is standing by the console, as are Daniel, O'Neill, and Hammond. Martouf's Tok'ra companions are waiting at the base of the ramp.]

MARTOUF
These are the coordinates we would like you send us.
CARTER
But not to anywhere we'll be able to find you again.
MARTOUF
To contact us, you may use this.
[He hands her a communications device.]

DANIEL
That's Tollan. They used it to contact the Nox.
MARTOUF
Yes, we are friends of the Tollan, and we are friends of the Tau'ri.
CARTER
Thank you.
O'NEILL
Well, if we're going to be friends, you're going to need one of these.
[He hands Martouf a GDO.]

O'NEILL
It's called a G D O. It sends out a signal that let's us know who you are and if it's ok to open the iris. Otherwise, you could end up splattered against the…well…
MARTOUF
(smiling)
I understand.
CARTER
Come on. I'll show you how it works.
[Carter and Martouf go down to the Gate room.]

HAMMOND
All right. Let's send them home people.
[The Gate spins into action, and O'Neill looks on from the control room, contemplatively.]

Holiday

INT—SGC INFIRMARY

TEAL'C/O'NEILL
What's going on, Captain?
CARTER
I think I may have come up with a solution to this whole mess.
TEAL'C/O'NEILL
Finally.
FRAISER
Well, whatever you're going to do, do it fast.
CARTER
All right, it's a little complicated, so I need you to do exactly as I say. We're going to have to play a little musical chairs with your bodies. First, Colonel, you and Ma'chello will switch.
(Teal'c/O'Neill looks doubtful)
Trust me, Colonel.
[Daniel/Ma'chello and Teal'c/O'Neill grab the handles of the device. The device makes the same transference sound as before.]

CARTER
(to Daniel/O'Neill)
Colonel?
DANIEL/O'NEILL
I'm here.
CARTER
How do you feel, physically?
DANIEL/O'NEILL
Peachy.
TEAL'C/MA'CHELLO
The transference was successful. Physically we are fine. Please continue, Captain.
CARTER
All right.
(to O'Neill/Teal'c)
Now you and Daniel should switch.
[She pulls the device over to Ma'chello/Daniel's bed. She places his hands on the handle of the device. O'Neill/Teal'c grabs the other handles, and the transference takes place.]

O'NEILL/DANIEL
Whoa! Whoa, what a dream. What happened?
CARTER
I don't have time to explain right now, Daniel. Just bear with me.
O'NEILL/DANIEL
Okay.
DANIEL/O'NEILL
Danny-boy.
[He gestures with a finger for him to walk over]

O'NEILL/DANIEL
Jack?
[He walks over to join Daniel/O'Neill]

TEAL'C/MA'CHELLO
(to Carter)
I wish I had time to teach you the symbols. In your hands my inventions could go on fighting the Goa'uld.
CARTER
It's all right, I'll figure it out. Please.
[He grabs the handles, and Ma'chello transfers back into his own body.]

TEAL'C
I am myself again. Thank you, Captain Carter.
CARTER
Any time.
[Fraiser and Carter take Ma'chello's hands off the device. Carter gestures to Daniel/O'Neill and O'Neill/Daniel to come over to the machine.]
DANIEL/O'NEILL
(patting O'Neill/Daniel on the shoulder)
Our turn.
[They grab the handles and exchange bodies.]

MA'CHELLO
(to Daniel)
Thank you, for my holiday.
[Ma'chello dies. Fraiser closes his eyes with her hand. She is tearful. She turns off the blaring heart monitor. Everyone looks sad at his death.]

HAMMOND
(somberly)
Welcome back, SG-1.

One False Step

EXT—ALIEN VILLAGE—PLANET PJ2-445

[Carter is working on solar-powered panels, while O'Neill watches her progress.]

CARTER
Frequency emitters are operational, sir.
[Carter rises from her position and goes over to see Daniel, who is with the aliens.]

CARTER
Daniel, we should, uh, we should get out of here.
DANIEL
(Reluctant)
Well, don't you wanna stay and see if it works?
CARTER
Yeah, but we can watch from the ridge over there. I have a hunch, and I think we might be in the way.
[Daniel looks at her, then back at the aliens. She looks meaningfully at Daniel, then she and O'Neill move off leaving Daniel with the aliens.]

DANIEL
(Raising his hand)
Goodbye.
[Alien #1 and another alien raise their hands, too. And Daniel joins Teal'c as they follow O'Neill and Carter. Daniel and Teal'c both turn back, raising their hands. Again, the aliens return the gesture. Watching from the ridge, SG-1 stand and wait. Teal'c is watching through binoculars.]

DANIEL
(To Carter)
How much longer, do you think?
CARTER
I don't know.
O'NEILL
Care to let us in on this hunch?
CARTER
Not yet, sir.
[Viewing the village from the ridge, they see the aliens moving out among the dwellings, the aliens begin singing.]

TEAL'C
The plants are growing.
[Daniel looks on, and O'Neill puts the binoculars to his eyes. Through the lenses, he sees the plants start growing.]

DANIEL
(To Carter, curiously)
That was your hunch?
CARTER
I had a feeling there was some sort of symbiotic relationship between the aliens and the organism. They probably don't even realise it.
DANIEL
Well, how did you realise it?
[Carter opens her mouth, but doesn't say anything.]

O'NEILL
Captain?
[Carter glances around nervously.]

CARTER
I…I talk to my plants, OK?
[The team just look at her, but say nothing. Across the expanse, the plants are growing everywhere, bright pink blossoms bursting open at the tops.]

Show and Tell

INT—SGC GATE ROOM

[SG-1, Hammond, and Jacob are there. O'Neill's right arm is in a sling.]

JACOB
(to Carter)
Keep the TERs. We'll get you more as soon as they become available.
[Charlie and Fraiser enter, Charlie wearing his original clothing. Charlie is crying. O'Neill kneels in front of him.]

O'NEILL
You know, there's another rule that says it's okay to be sad when you're saying goodbye to a new friend.
CHARLIE
I wanna stay with you, Jack.
O'NEILL
Jacob's going to take you to a place where you can get well. I can't do that. But you know what?
CHARLIE
What?
O'NEILL
I'll come visit. You'll come visit. Okay?
CHARLIE
I guess.
[Charlie is still crying. O'Neill touches his face and wipes away the tears, then stands up.]

SELMAK
I warn you, the Reetou are guileful creatures. And you are at the disadvantage of not being able to sense them, as my Jaffa friend and I can.
CARTER
Well, we've installed the hand scanner, so they can't open the iris at least.
SELMAK
You are only one, Teal'c. Please be diligent. They will not give up. They will attempt to send more infiltrators.
[Teal'c nods in acknowledgment. The Gate activates.]

JACOB
(saying goodbye)
George.
CARTER
Bye, Dad.
JACOB
You take care.
CARTER
You too.
[Jacob reaches for Charlie's hand. O'Neill is standing with his left arm around Charlie's shoulder and gestures that it's okay to go. Charlie takes Jacob's hand and they walk up the ramp and through the wormhole. O'Neill looks very sad to see him go.]

1969

INT—GATE ROOM, PRESENT DAY

[The Gate has already activated, and the camera cuts to the control room.]

TECHNICIAN
Incoming traveler, sir.
[Hammond and another technician hurry into the control room, and Hammond goes to the window.]

TECHNICIAN
(surprised)
It's SG-1.
HAMMOND
Open the iris.
[He turns and runs out of the control room. Cut to the Stargate as the iris slides open. The bay door slides open and Hammond walks in, just as SG-1 steps through the wormhole. Seeing that they're finally home, O'Neill throws up his hands in relief, pointing both fingers at Hammond.]

O'NEILL
Yes!
[He heads down to meet Hammond at the base of the ramp, with the rest of the team behind him.]

O'NEILL
…thanks to one sparky young Lieutenant Hammond.
CARTER
How did you know, sir?
HAMMOND
When I was a young lieutenant, I was ordered to escort four people out of Cheyenne Mountain. In the vest pocket of one I found a note with my name on it. Needless to say, I followed its instructions.
CARTER
But you couldn't have known when to give it to me.
HAMMOND
No, not until I saw the cut on your hand. Remember when I took your cuffs off.
CARTER
Then you've been waiting for this to happen.
HAMMOND
Ever since we met. I almost didn't let you go.
CARTER
But if you didn't, you would have changed your own history.
[O'Neill simply smiles and shakes his head.]

HAMMOND
It's going to be a long debriefing, people. We'll start in one hour.
O'NEILL
Yes, sir.
HAMMOND
Oh, by the way, Colonel…with interest, you owe me five hundred thirty-nine dollars and fifty cents.
[Carter and Daniel can't help but grin at that one.]

O'NEILL
(smiles)
Yes, sir.

Out of Mind

INT—FALSE SGC, GATEROOM

[Carter, O'Neill and Daniel enter the fake Gateroom.]

DANIEL
I’ve never seen this place so deserted.
CARTER
Guess they figure they don’t need to keep up the act if we’re unconscious.
[O'Neill experimentally kicks the Stargate.]

O’NEILL
It’s fake.
[Daniel yanks open a locker, but finds it empty.]

DANIEL
I don’t understand. Who would have spent enough time in the base to be able to reproduce it in this kind of detail? You don’t think Apophis…
VOICE
Silence!
[At the top of the Stargate ramp, the air suddenly shimmers and Hathor appears. She heads down the ramp towards Daniel.]

O’NEILL
(as Hathor passes him)
Oh, I was so hoping never to see you again.
[Raully and Trofsky, armed with zats, appear from each of the gate room’s exits, along with a dozen, armed Jaffa. Hathor makes her way down to Daniel and strokes his face.]

HATHOR
We have indeed missed you, our beloved.
CARTER
Daniel, don’t let her breathe on you.
HATHOR
You think that we would go to these lengths if you were not already immune to that organism?
[Carter shoots O'Neill a look, but he simply shrugs. Hathor leaves Daniel and walks lazily around her Jaffa guards. Daniel joins O'Neill and Carter on the Stargate ramp.]

HATHOR
Do you like our guards? We managed to lure them from the remote outposts of our enemies. We are quietly building our forces before the System Lords even know that we are alive. But doing so is difficult when we have to operate with limited knowledge of the state of the empire.
[O'Neill holds up his hand.]

O’NEILL
Let me take a guess, it’s just a wild guess, but that’s where we come in, right?
CARTER
We know more than you do.
HATHOR
Perhaps. We are prepared to offer you a life of luxury as servants in our royal court, for sharing information. Deny us…and you will not enjoy the alternative.
[She comes to stand before O'Neill, waiting for an answer.]

O’NEILL
You know…you really should do something about the breath.
HATHOR
How do we contact the Asgard so that we might align with their forces?
O’NEILL
Try Roswell, little place in New Mexico.
HATHOR
(moving onto Carter)
What is the sequence of numbers necessary to open the barricade protecting your Stargate?
[When Carter doesn’t answer, Hathor turns away.]

HATHOR
If you will not give us the information that we desire, we do have another means of retrieving it.
[She snaps her finger and a Jaffa enters the Gateroom, moving to stand before her.]

HATHOR
An opportunity has presented itself, at a most…fortuitous time.
[She reaches into the Jaffa’s pouch and pulls out a writhing, adult Goa’uld. She holds it out for SG-1 to see.]

HATHOR
Our friend here is ready for a host. Tell us, which one of you shall it be?

So vote for your three favourites from those above!

Show and Tell
Out of Mind

I love 1969 as an episode but just thought that some of the other endings as listed here were better. I also liked the ending to Touchstone - creepy Maybourne.

BRA'TAC
Human.
[Teal'c and General Hammond, having landed the Death Glider, approach the gathering. They all share a moment of triumph before heading towards the Stargate.]

Seth

EXT—MARK CARTER'S HOUSE (DAY)

[Carter and Jacob walk up the driveway towards the house, sharing a quick hug, before Jacob goes up to the door and knocks. It is answered by Mark Carter. Jacob embraces him and, after a moment, Mark returns the loving gesture. Jacob picks up one of his grandchildren, smiling, before entering the house. Carter follows and shares a hug with her brother.]

Fair Game

INT—SGC GATE ROOM

[The Stargate activates. Kronos and Yu, Nirrti held prisoner between them, head up the Gate ramp. O'Neill and Daniel are standing at the bottom of the ramp, witnessing their departure. Before he enters the gate, Kronos turns back to the Gate room.]

KRONOS
We will not attack your world. But…if you continue to use your Stargate, be warned—anyone who is caught by one of the System Lords will be shown no mercy. They will suffer greatly.
O'NEILL
Well that certainly makes life more…interesting.
[The Goa'uld System Lords disappear through the gate, watched by Defense Secretary Simms.]

[SG-1 and Hammond gather around Teal'c's bed as Dr. Fraiser injects the protein into his IV.]

FRAISER
Ok. Well, I don't know if this is going to work. He'll have the marker, but he'll still have a Goa'uld larva. Depends on how smart Ma'chello made the little beggars.
[Teal'c groans, then opens his eyes.]

TEAL'C
(whispering)
Ma'chello.
[The dead organism drips out of his ear and is taken away by Dr. Fraiser.]

Learning Curve

EXT—ORBAN, CHILDREN'S HOME (DAY)

[A child is playing hopscotch. Former Urrone children are laughing and playing everywhere.]

KALAN
Come. Look. Isn't it wonderful?
[Tomin is skipping with two other children. Kalan interrupts them in order to introduce Tomin to O'Neill.]

KALAN
Colonel O'Neill, this is my son Tomin. I am teaching him. All of the past Urrone children will now learn, in the old fashioned way, as you might say. He will know all that you have done for Orban.
[He takes out a piece of paper.]

KALAN
Oh and I drew this for you, to express my gratitude.
[He hands the paper to O'Neill. It is a picture of a matchstick figure with blond hair.]

CARTER
Isn't that…?
KALAN
Me!
DANIEL
Kalan, when did all this start?
KALAN
Last night, after Merrin's Averium.
CARTER
She must have known this would happen once her nanites were transferred.
O'NEILL
This…is what she learned.
[Carter sees Merrin drawing on a nearby wall.]

CARTER
(gesturing to Merrin)
Colonel.
[As O'Neill heads over to Merrin, Teal'c bends down before Tomin, who touches his tattoo in curiosity. O'Neill comes to stand by Merrin. She continues to draw with the crayons he gave her.]

O'NEILL
Ok. I guess we'll just have to get to know one another all over again.
[He takes a crayon and starts to draw. Merrin smiles and scribbles it out.]

O'NEILL
You're right. What was I thinking? You ever seen a dog? Dog's are my favourite people. Some have tails, some don't. I like that about dogs.

Point of View

INT—ALTERNATE SGC, STORAGE CLOSET

KAWALSKY
(to O'Neill)
Colonel. It's been a pleasure to serve with you. Again.
O'NEILL
Likewise.
KAWALSKY
Right.
[Kawalsky salutes O'Neill, who returns the gesture. Kawalsky then turns to Teal'c and salutes him. Teal'c bows his head in return. In the mirror, Carter is watching the scene from their reality.]

SAMANTHA
(to O'Neill)
This is hard. Goodbye for a second time.
O'NEILL
It's the first time.
SAMANTHA
It doesn't feel that way to me. You have to understand, my Jack had the same face, same voice…same hands.
O'NEILL
Which brings to mind an obvious question. How could you marry such a loser?
[Samantha laughs and turns to Teal'c and Daniel.]

SAMANTHA
Thank you.
DANIEL
You're welcome.
[O'Neill silently gestures for Daniel and Teal'c to go through the mirror. Taking the hint, they stand side by side as they touch the mirror and disappear, reappearing on the opposite side. Samantha and O'Neill stare at each other for a long moment, before Samantha reaches up and kisses O'Neill. Carter, watching from the other side of the mirror, appears uncomfortable and looks away. Samantha finally pulls away from O'Neill.]

SAMANTHA
You're really not him, are you.
O'NEILL
No.
SAMANTHA
I just wish…
O'NEILL
Yep.
[He steps away from her and touches the mirror, appearing briefly on the other side before it goes dark. Samantha is left standing alone in the storage room with tears running down her face.]

EXT—ALIEN PLANET, FOREST (DAY)

[O'Neill, Carter, Daniel, along with Korra, arrive just as Aris Boch climbs out of his escape pod.]

O'NEILL
Where's Teal'c?
[Teal'c appears behind them.]

TEAL'C
I am here O'Neill.
O'NEILL
Yes!
DANIEL
You okay?
TEAL'C
I will be fine.
CARTER
What happened?
ARIS BOCH
I had some technical difficulties, which I communicated to Sokar's ship, just after I accidentally removed this.
[He shows them the crystal he removed from the self-destruct device. O'Neill yanks it out of his hand.]

CARTER
Glad to have you back, Teal'c.
KORRA
(to Teal'c)
Somehow, I must find a way to pay tribute to what you have done for me and the Tok'ra.
TEAL'C
There is no need.
ARIS BOCH
Hey, guys, what about me? Don't I get a thank you?
CARTER
For doing the right thing for a change?
ARIS BOCH
Well, it's kind of a back-handed show of appreciation, but I'll take it.
DANIEL
Won't Sokar be angry?
ARIS BOCH
Oh, hopefully he thinks I'm dead. By the time he figures it out, I'll be long gone.
CARTER
What about the substance you need?
KORRA
The roshna?
ARIS BOCH
There are plenty of Goa'uld out there I could trade with.
O'NEILL
Well. We'd better get back to the Stargate.
ARIS BOCH
Oh, uh, Dr Jackson. I was lying to you before. The price on your head is much more than a day's rations. Actually the Goa'uld want to see you dead as much as anyone for figuring out the Stargate.
DANIEL
Thank you. That doesn't make me feel any better.
ARIS BOCH
Major?
[He takes out a vial of roshna and hands it to her.]

ARIS BOCH
Who knows, maybe someday someone will figure out a way for what's left of my people to be free of the Goa'uld. And that would be something worth trading for.
[She smiles and heads after the others. Teal'c pauses by Aris Boch and bows his head in thanks, before following the others, leaving the bounty hunter alone in the forest.]

Demons

EXT—STARGATE CLEARING (DAY)

[Daniel, Carter and Mary are waiting by the Stargate as O'Neill, Teal'c, Simon and the Canon approach.]

MARY
Simon!
[She runs over to him and they hug.]

MARY
I knew you would come. Are you hurt?
SIMON
I will be fine.
DANIEL
What happened?
CANON
The beast…is dead. Had I not witnessed it myself, I would not have believed it. Thank you…all, for showing me the way.
O'NEILL
You're welcome. Major, dial us home.
[Carter starts to dial Earth, but pauses after the first chevron is lit.]

O'NEILL
Carter?
[She looks at the Canon.]

CARTER
It went into him.
SIMON
What went into him?
[The Canon starts to move forward and Teal'c aims his staff weapon.]

TEAL'C
Go no further!
CANON
Why? I have done nothing.
(to Simon and Mary)
My children…
O'NEILL
(to Carter)
Are you sure?
CARTER
Positive, Sir. I can sense it. The Unas host was dying, it had no where else to go. It went into him.
[The Canon's eyes light up and he lunges at them. O'Neill shoots him with his sidearm and the Canon falls backwards. Carter goes to check on him and Simon kneels at his side.]

CANON
Forgive me.
[After a moment, he dies.]

SIMON
(praying)
By the sorrows ye suffered, in your agony in the garden, in your scourging and crowning with thorns…
DANIEL
The prayer for Suffering Souls.
SIMON
(cont'd)
In your crucifixion and death, have mercy on the souls. Deliver them from the dire torments they endure and admit them to your most sweet embrace in Paradise.
[He makes the sign of the cross on the Canon's forehead. Mary crosses herself.]

SIMON
Now the demon is truly gone.
O'NEILL
Major?
[Carter nods and heads back to the DHD to dial home.]

O'NEILL
(to Simon and Mary)
You know what to do?
MARY
Yes. We will do what you say.
SIMON
We will bury the Gate. Immediately. And there will be no more Sacrifices.
O'NEILL
Thank God.
[Carter presses the centre stone and Stargate opens. She sends the GDO signal back to Earth and SG-1 step through the Stargate, leaving Simon and Mary in the clearing.]

Rules of Engagement

EXT—MILITARY TRAINING CAMP (DAY)

[Carter runs out of the tent with the vocume, narrowly avoiding an exploding mortar, and plants the device in the center of the camp. The giant image of Apophis appears.]

APOPHIS' IMAGE
Warriors of Apophis, assemble before me and listen to he that possesses the vocume.
[The attacking warriors stop firing. They slowly come of the woods and enter the encampment, assembling before the image of Apophis.]

APOPHIS' IMAGE
(cont'd)
The warrior before you speaks in my name. Heed his words.
ROGERS
(to the warriors)
It's a message from Apophis himself!
NELSON
Summoning his image during battle is against the Rules of Engagement…
ROGERS
Hear his words!
NELSON
When the Challenge is over!
O'NEILL
Now, Nelson! You will listen to him now! Before anyone else gets hurt.
NELSON
The Final Challenge is to the death, Colonel.
[Nelson looks up in astonishment as the image of Apophis changes.]

APOPHIS' IMAGE
A host. I am…afraid.
[He takes a gasping breath, then dies.]

NELSON
(shocked)
He is a god. It cannot be so.
ROGERS
It is so.
[The other soldiers start to wander around in confusion, no longer willing to fight.]

NELSON
(to Rogers)
What will become of us? Where will we go now?
ROGERS
Home.
[He exchanges a look with SG-1 as the rest of the warriors fall out and start to walk away.]

Forever in a Day

EXT—AMMONET'S PLANET (DAY)

[Daniel walks passed Jaffa bodies and enters the tent where Ammonet used the ribbon device on him. He stares down at the burn on the floor, marking the place where Teal'c shot Sha're. Sha're, dressed as Ammonet, appears behind him.]

SHA'RE
You are finally here.
DANIEL
Yes.
SHA'RE
You are the only one who can save the boy, Daniel.
DANIEL
He's a Harsesis. He contains all their knowledge.
SHA'RE
Ammonet took the Abydonians as a show, so that Heru-Ur would not know her true goal.
DANIEL
To take the boy.
SHA'RE
She has sent him into hiding with her closest aide.
DANIEL
Where?
[Sha're starts to vanish, but manages to pull herself back.]

SHA'RE
Kheb.
DANIEL
I know a Kheb. There's a reference. It's the mythical place where Osiris hid from Seth. Kheb is a myth.
SHA'RE
No.
DANIEL
Where is it?
[Sha're puts her hand on his face.]

SHA'RE
Promise me you will save the child.
DANIEL
I promise.
[Sha're puts her arm around him and they kiss. Abruptly, Daniel finds himself in the grip of Ammonet's ribbon device once more. His sidearm tumbles to the floor as Ammonet's eyes glow. Teal'c, standing in the doorway, raises his staff weapon. Ammonet glances at him as he fires, the shot knocking her off her feet. Daniel falls at her side. Ammonet's glowing eyes fade as the Goa'uld dies and only Sha're is left.]

LEYAL
She did this willingly?
CARTER
Yes. With her help, we were able to synthesise a small amount of the enhanced D'Argol that caused the Vorlix, and reintroduce it into her bloodstream. Her memory is gone again.
[Kira enters the Gate room along with Daniel and Dr Frasier.]

DANIEL
(introducing everyone)
Kira, these are friends of mine. Teal'c, Jack, General Hammond, Sam…And these are friends of yours. They've come to take you home.
KIRA
(to Nodal and Leyal)
Do you know me?
NODAL
We do, Kira. We understand you have lost your memory. Know that you are a great leader of our people and you are most welcome.
[He and Leyal turn and head up the ramp towards the open Stargate. Kira turns to Daniel.]

KIRA
I sense we knew each other well, before my memory was lost. Did we?
DANIEL
No. No we never really did. Goodbye Kira.
KIRA
Goodbye.
[She walks up the ramp, taking Nodal's proffered hand. Just before she steps into the event horizon, she turns and smiles at Daniel, before disappearing.]

It's ok Katerine, I only have to copy and paste the last scene from each episode :)

MARTOUF
Okay.
[The door bursts open to the sound and air distortion of a hand device. Na'onak rushes in with the men behind him. They completely surround the team, placing their hands on them.]

KINTAC
Kneel before Na'onak!
[The team is forced to their knees.]

NA'ONAK
You shall call me Na'onak no longer. From this day forth I will reclaim my real name.
[He pulls the helmet and covering from his head, revealing that he is Apophis. The right half of his face is scarred and partially covered in a metal mask.]

APOPHIS
Apophis!</blockquote>

[The team reacts with surprise, hatred, and fear, and Apophis' eyes glow briefly.]

The Devil You Know

INT—TELTAK

[Teal'c gets up from his pilot seat and opens the cargo door to see everyone there.]

ALDWIN
I'm sorry I doubted you.
TEAL'C
I am as surprised as you that we survived.
[Martouf gives a water bag to Carter, who gives it to Jacob.]

CARTER
Thank you.
JACOB
Do you have any leave coming up?
CARTER
Yeah, a little.
JACOB
I was thinking maybe we could take a little father-daughter vacation together.
CARTER
That'd be great, Dad.
JACOB
I hear Alaska's cold this time of year.
[Carter laughs and kisses him.]

EXT—TELTAK MOVING THROUGH HYPERSPACE

INT—VIEW OF NETU REMNANTS FROM SOKAR'S PALACE

[Apophis turns to face the camera.]

Foothold

INT—CONTROL ROOM

[SG-1, Dr. Fraiser and Major Davis are all in attendance.]

HAMMOND
I've ordered P3X-118 locked out of our dialing program.
CARTER
The human counterparts of those aliens woke up spontaneously. We're assuming the signals stopped when they went through the Stargate.
TEAL'C
Those who escaped still possess the knowledge they obtained from being linked to your minds.
O'NEILL
That's creepy.
HAMMOND
We changed all our codes. That's all we can do.
DANIEL
So…how did this happen, exactly? The aliens came through the Gate already impersonating SG-6?
FRASIER
We rushed them to the infirmary. We don't remember anything after that.
DAVIS
General Hammond asked me to come here, but he wouldn't say why. Presumably, their next step after the SGC was the Pentagon.
CARTER
Well, a high-frequency blast from the harmonic generator every time a team returns should prevent it from happening again.
[Maybourne enters.]

O'NEILL
Colonel Maybourne.
(Pause)
Good save.
MAYBOURNE
I thought you'd like to know the alien posing as Dr. Jackson expired.
TEAL'C
What of the aliens that were not caught in the Gate room explosion?
MAYBOURNE
We're guessing they were linked to their leader in some form or another when he self-destructed.
CARTER
What about the aliens that escaped through the Gate?
MAYBOURNE
I guess we'll never know. We'll have to hope the same thing happened to them.
[Carter nods.]

HAMMOND
We appreciate your help on this matter, Colonel Maybourne.
MAYBOURNE
(straightening)
Credit Major Carter. I do.
(Carter and O'Neill both looked shocked at this)
Well. I'm sure we'll see each other again.
O'NEILL
That'd be nice, Harry.
Maybourne looks surprised at the use of his first name, then looks at Carter. She nods once at Maybourne and he returns the gesture. Maybourne leaves. Carter looks down at the table, then looks at O'Neill, smiling proudly.

Pretense

INT—COURTHOUSE, TOLLANA

[Travell approaches Teal'c.]

TRAVELL
You disregarded my warnings.
O'NEILL
Mine too. Well done.
TRAVELL
If you were one of my subjects, I would be forced to discipline you. However, you are not one of my subjects.
[She places her hand against his chest and bows.]

TEAL'C
It could not have been done without the assistance of Lya.
CARTER
(to Lya)
I thought the Nox were pacifists.
LYA
I only hid the weapon. I did not fire it.
CARTER
Pretty fine line you didn't cross.
LYA
Yes it is.
O'NEILL
(to Travell)
So, we basically saved your whole planet, right?
TRAVELL
Yes.
O'NEILL
Are you therefore indebted to us in any modest way?
TRAVELL
I suppose that is the case.
O'NEILL
So how about giving us the plans to build one of those ion canons?
TRAVELL
You have been told our policy. That has not changed.
[Daniel enters the room.]

[The Edorans are reuniting with their people, while SG-1 stand close by.]

CARTER</br> (to O'Neill)
So when the third MALP sent back just a few seconds of telemetry, we knew the Gate was hori…zontal.
[She is cut off as O'Neill brushes passed her.]

CARTER
Is he all right?
DANIEL
He's fine. I just don't think he was expecting to go home again.
[O'Neill stands before Laira and she takes his hands.]

LAIRA
You must be very happy to be going home.
O'NEILL
No, I'm not.
LAIRA
You don't have to.
O'NEILL
Come with me.
LAIRA
I belong here.
O'NEILL
I'll come back. Soon. We still have that treaty to talk about.
LAIRA
Of course. Our two worlds are going to be friends.
[They embrace sadly.]

LAIRA
Closer friends. Fair day and be well.
[O'Neill walks back to SG-1 while Laira stands and watches, her hands crossed protectively over her stomach.]

Shades of Grey

INT—GATE ROOM, SGC

[Teal'c is tying Tobias' wrists together as Newman finally steps through the Gate. O'Neill has his hand through the event horizon, but he withdraws it, and the Gate shuts down.]

O'NEILL
Good job kids.
(to Makepeace) Uh, give me one of those.
[Makepeace hands him a pair of plastic handcuffs.]

MAKEPEACE
Here.
[O'Neill quickly grabs him and handcuffs him, while other Airmen point their sidearms at him.]

MAKEPEACE
What the hell…what are you doing?!
O'NEILL
That would be…my job.
[Hammond comes over, along with Carter and Daniel.]

HAMMOND
(to Mayborne's group)
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm pleased to announce that you're all under arrest for high crimes against the United States and its allies.
[Travell enters the Gate room.]

MAKEPEACE
You really blew it O'Neill.
O'NEILL
Oh, I think it came off quite nicely, don't you General?
HAMMOND
Yes I do.
MAKEPEACE
You have no idea how high up this goes.
O'NEILL
Like the Tollan, Tok'ra, Asgard, Nox…those folks?
MAKEPEACE
They refuse to give us the things we need to defend ourselves against the Goa'uld.
O'NEILL
We don't need their stuff Makepeace. We do need them.
HAMMOND
Get them out of here.
[Mayborne's people are dragged out of the Gate room.]

DANIEL
So, just to uh, clarify, this whole past week, beginning with the appeal we made on Tollana in which I did a lot of hard work, by the way…I take it that was all a scam.
HAMMOND
Within the last two weeks, the Asgard and the Tollan approached us independently of each other with evidence that we were stealing technology from them.
CARTER
We? The SGC?
HAMMOND
Yes. The Asgard, the Tollan and the Nox were going to sever all ties with us. But we convinced them the theft must be the action of a rogue group from outside the SGC.
TRAVELL
We insisted that you apprehend them yourselves. You have now regained our trust.
CARTER
So, you set that whole thing up on Tollana in the hopes that the mole would think you were one of them and approach you?
DANIEL
And you didn't think you could trust us to help?
HAMMOND
We wanted to assure that your reaction to the Colonel's behaviour was as it should be. And the Asgard insisted that Colonel O'Neill be the only one involved.
O'NEILL
They like me.
HAMMOND
And now, will you come with me your Eminence?
[He and Travell leave the Gate room.]

O'NEILL
Um, Daniel?
(He gestures for Daniel to walk with him)
That stuff I was talking about at my house…
DANIEL
Uh…
O'NEILL
The place was bugged, I had to keep up the act.
DANIEL
I, it's, I understand.
O'NEILL
And obviously the whole friendship thing, the foundation, it's all solid.
DANIEL
Obviously, it's, you don't have to…
O'NEILL
Nothing to worry about.
DANIEL
You don't have to…
O'NEILL
No, no, I feel I kinda…I do appreciate that you were the one that came to see if I was ok. That…that means something.
DANIEL
(halting)
Ah, actually, no it doesn't.
O'NEILL
Huh?
[Daniel exchanges a look with Carter and Teal'c.]

DANIEL
Um, we, uh, we drew straws. I lost.
[Daniel and Carter continue on down the corridor. Teal'c pauses by O'Neill with a distinctly smug look on his face, then follows, leaving the Colonel standing there.]

New Ground

INT—INFIRMARY, SGC

[Both Teal'c and Nyan are lying in hospital beds in the infirmary.]

FRASIER
Well Teal'c, all I can say is that Junior is a resilient little guy.
NYAN
Who is Junior?
TEAL'C
That is the name Colonel O'Neill has given my symbiote.
CARTER
So how are you feeling?
TEAL'C
Greatly improved, Major Carter. Thank you.
O'NEILL
(to Nyan)
Here's some good news. The airforce has agreed to get you refugee status, which means you can stay here on Earth. With us. If you'd like.
NYAN
What would I do here?
DANIEL
Well I think we've got a little job for you Nyan, if you're interested. I have a backlog of ancient artifacts gathered from previous missions and I could really use a research assistant. It would also be a great way to learn about the history of your ancestors.
FRASIER
(to Nyan and Teal'c)
But for now, you both need to rest.
O'NEILL
And we'll leave you to it.
[Frasier and the rest of SG-1 leave the infirmary.]

NYAN
Thank you, Teal'c.
TEAL'C
You have saved my life, as well as the life of my friends. It is I who should thank you.
NYAN
I still wish I could have shown you to my friends in the science community. They would have been fascinated.
TEAL'C
Perhaps one day the situation on your planet will improve and you will get that opportunity.
[He smiles and settles back in his bed.]

[They enter the pyramid and pause by the original MALP, looking out over the cavern.]

NICK
(excitedly)
It's just as I remembered it. This is where they live.
[He starts to cross the narrow bridge, stumbles slightly and is steadied by O'Neill. They cross the bridge and reach the island. Daniel walks over to the pedestal while Teal'c retrieves the skull from his pack. He hands to Nick, who goes to the pedestal and places it on top.]

NICK
Now we must wait for the giant aliens.
O'NEILL
(dryly)
That just has a nice ring to it.
[Nick steps down from the pedestal.]

O'NEILL
(into his radio)
General Hammond, we're in position.
HAMMOND
(over the radio)
Understood Colonel. Proceed.
[Daniel bends forward and looks directly into the eyes of the skull. It starts to glow and the energy field springs up, enveloping all of them.]

CARTER
Sir, radiation's climbing again.
NICK
(looking at the lights surrounding them)
This is incredible.
O'NEILL
Daniel said to let it happen.
[Daniel is still staring into the eyes of the skull, when the field collapses back into the skull.]

CARTER
(seeing him)
Daniel!
[He turns around.]

DANIEL
Sam.
[He heads down the steps towards them.]

DANIEL
(cont'd)
It worked.
[Teal'c is looking around.]

TEAL'C
O'Neill! Major Carter!
[He doesn't appear to be able to see any of them. O'NEILL waves his hand through TEAL'C.]

O'NEILL
Carter?
CARTER
It appears that we're out of phase like Daniel, but Teal'c isn't.
DANIEL
Why?
O'NEILL
You're asking me?
TEAL'C
(into his radio)
General Hammond, I was not teleported with the others.
HAMMOND
(over the radio)
Return to base immediately.
[After one last look around, Teal'c obeys. A mist suddenly rises up from below them, materialising into the form of a giant, human-shaped being.]

DANIEL
(to the alien)
We are enemies of the Goa'uld!
GIANT ALIEN
(in English)
Then you are welcome here.
O'NEILL
(to Daniel)
Keep talking.
DANIEL
We're travellers, we come in search of friendship. We'd like to exchange our knowledge and culture.
GIANT ALIEN
We accept your proposition.
(He points to Nick.)
You may remain.
NICK
Me?
O'NEILL
Him?
GIANT ALIEN
(to Nick)
This is not the first time you have journeyed here.
NICK
You remember.
DANIEL
(to the alien)
There are others among our people who would gladly return.
NICK
No, Daniel. Let me.
DANIEL
Nick.
NICK
This was my life's work. I've been hoping for another chance at this for twenty-nine years. Please.
DANIEL
You just came back into my life.
NICK
I'll be back again.
GIANT ALIEN
(to the others)
Look again into the eyes of the skull.
O'NEILL
Well, Nick…take notes.
NICK
I will.
[Carter waves goodbye as she and O'Neill head towards the skull.]

Jolinars Memories- most memorable for me since this is one of the first eps I properly watched after season 1
Shades of Grey- Serious and funny all rolled into one fantastic package !!!

O'NEILL
(pointing at Thor)
Now that's timing!
CARTER
We came as soon as we could, sir.
[O'Neill rises and goes over to Teal'c]

O'NEILL
Teal'c, you all right?
TEAL'C
I am, O'Neill.
CARTER
I take it things weren't going too well?
O'NEILL
No, we had things handled.
CARTER
So the bugs are all taken care of down there?
O'NEILL
Pretty much. You?
CARTER
We kicked their asses!
O'NEILL
They had had asses?
[Carter laughs.]

CARTER
The Asgard had this big new ship. The O'Neill.
O'NEILL
(surprised)
Oh yeah!
CARTER
…But we had to blow it up.
O'NEILL
(disappointed)
Oh!
[Carter walks over to Teal'c and O'Neill.]

THOR
The Asgard are most grateful. One day we shall repay you by helping to fight the Goa'uld.
O'NEILL
One day?
THOR
Saving one Asgard planet was a small victory, O'Neill. The conflict with the replicators stretches across my galaxy. Major Carter's strategy worked this time, but the replicators are very intelligent. It may not work again.
[O'Neill looks at Carter and Teal'c]

O'NEILL
I get it.
THOR
However, now there is hope where once there was none.
CARTER
Well if you ever need any more dumb ideas you know where to find me.
THOR
Until we meet again.
O'NEILL
Yeah, hey listen drop by any time. In fact I'll take you fishing. I'd love to do that. There's this lake in northern Minnesota where the bass grow…
(opens arms wide)
that big, well…
[They are enveloped in a white light and disappear.]

The Other Side

INT—SGC GATE ROOM

[Carter comes through the Gate and turns around with her gun ready, expecting Alar. O'Neill slowly walks through.]

blockquote>O'NEILL
Close the iris.</blockquote>

HAMMOND
Do it!
[The iris closes behind O'Neill. He drops his hands from his weapon and stands staring ahead. Carter stares at him. The computer registers an impact on the iris. Hammond, Teal'c and Daniel are waiting at the bottom of the ramp.]

HAMMOND
I take it, Colonel, that you were unable to procure any of the Eurondan technology.
O'NEILL
That's correct, sir.
HAMMOND
I'm sorry to hear that.
O'NEILL
Don't be!
HAMMOND
We'll debrief in one hour.
[He walks away.]

O'NEILL
Yes sir.
[Carter stares at him then walks down the ramp to Daniel and Teal'c leaving O'Neill standing on the ramp.]

Upgrades

INT—SGC

[Hammond, Anise and some guards are hurrying down a corridor as an offworld activation alarm sounds. The Gate is heard opening as they enter the Gate room. SG-1 tumble through the Gate onto the embarkation ramp and Hammond runs up to them.]

O'NEILL
(to Hammond)
Just remember, I retired, you wanted me back.
[SG-1 climb to their feet. O'Neill, Carter and Daniel are exhausted.]

HAMMOND
Colonel, are you all ok?
DANIEL
Think so!
CARTER
Will be.
TEAL'C
I am very well, General Hammond.
HAMMOND
What happened?
O'NEILL
(angrily)
The damn armbands fell off, that's what happened!
ANISE
I am sorry.
HAMMOND
Were you successful in destroying the ship?
TEAL'C
Indeed we were, General Hammond.
HAMMOND
Good…report to the infirmary.
O'NEILL
General, sir…about the obviously impending court martial, sir…
HAMMOND
You were all under the influence of an alien technology, Colonel. That's a pretty solid defense.
O'NEILL
Even so…I'm sorry.
CARTER
Me too.
DANIEL
Me three.
[They all look to Teal'c for his reply.]

TEAL'C
(smugly)
I have no need to apologize.
[He walks down the ramp leaving the others to stare at him.]

HAMMOND
Teal'c was actually following orders.
[He walks off.]

O'NEILL
Of course he was.
[O'Neill, Carter and Daniel walk down the ramp.]

ANISE
You left the armbands behind?
CARTER
We had other things on our minds.
ANISE
Understandable…Colonel?
[Anise's host takes over.]

FREYA
Anise and I both hope we can work together again in the future.
O'NEILL
Both of you?
[She nods at him.]

[Teal'c enters with O'Neill and Anise following. Teal'c walks up to Tanith with a grim look on his face. He stares at Tanith.]

TANITH
(slowly)
Hello, Teal'c. You must feel the pain of Shaun'auc's death as deeply as I do. It is a terrible loss to both of us and has been difficult…Why have you come to see me?
TEAL'C
To look upon you and know that Shaun'auc's sacrifice will not be in vain.
TANITH
You have my promise. I hope one day we will meet again, Teal'c, and together remember she who meant so much to both of us.
TEAL'C
We will meet again.
(He bows his head)
You have my promise.

Divide and Conquer

INT—SGC, GATE ROOM

[Daniel is talking to the High Councillor Per'sus. An SF approaches Daniel and whispers something to him. Martouf activates a small Goa'uld weapon on his fingers. Daniel excuses himself from the High Councillor. He crosses to Martouf.]

DANIEL
Martouf, can I talk to you outside for a second?
[Hammond enters with the presidential party.]

HAMMOND
Supreme High Councillor Per'sus of the Tok'ra, may I introduce the President of the United States of America.
[Martouf knocks Daniel to the ground. Daniel yells a warning and the bodyguards rush to protect the various dignitaries. Martouf fires at the High Councillor Per'sus but misses. From the doorway, O'Neill shoots Martouf in the leg. Martouf turns and fires at O'Neill who moves quickly out of the way. As Daniel ducks from the debris, two US secret servicemen fire multiple times at Martouf, who aims and fires at them. Teal'c walks in, shoots Martouf with a zat and has to duck to avoid being shot himself.]

MARTOUF
Samantha?
[Carter shoots him a second time with the zat. She runs to him as he collapses to the floor and cradles him on her knee, holding the alien weapon clear.]

[Hammond enters with Anise.]

HAMMOND
Is everyone okay? Per'sus?
PER'SUS
Yes. Is the President all right?
HAMMOND
He's okay. But I'm afraid this man isn't the President. The real President is still waiting for our signal in Air Force One. We had to be absolutely sure.
PER'SUS
I see. May that be the last time such a deception is required by either of us.
[Carter is still cradling Martouf's body.]

ANISE
I promise you, his death will ultimately prove to be a noble sacrifice.
[Carter is crying as she gently cradles Martouf to her, cupping his face in both her hands.]

Window of Opportunity

INT—COMMISSARY

[O'Neill is eating a giant spoonful of oatmeal from a large bowlfull. Daniel and Carter are staring at him.]

DANIEL
I don't think I've ever seen anyone enjoy oatmeal so much.
O'NEILL
When you've been eating fruit loops for who knows how long, a little variety helps.
CARTER
We got a message from the Tok'ra. Apparently they've been trying to contact us for over three months.
[O'Neill looks up, not surprised.]

O'NEILL
Really?
CARTER
Who knows when they first realized that we were cut off? I mean, there's really no telling how much time passed.
DANIEL
Let me ask you something. In all the time that you were…err…looping, were you ever tempted to do something crazy?
[O'Neill looks up. Carter seems interested in the answer.]

DANIEL
I mean…you could do anything without worrying about the consequences.
O'NEILL
You know, it's funny. You asked me that before.
DANIEL
And?
[O'Neill just looks at Carter with a small smile on his face. Carter looks at Daniel, puzzled. O'Neill takes another big spoonful of oatmeal and eats it.]

Watergate

INT—CORRIDOR OUTSIDE STARGATE ROOM

[O'Neill awakens on the floor outside the Stargate room. He hears the sound of the DHD being activated. O'Neill stands quickly and walks through the door into the Gate room just as Teal'c activates the Gate. The Gate opens and Teal'c walks towards it. Suddenly Teal'c falls to the floor and 'vomits' the 'water' up as Maybourne did. O'Neill looks on in horror. The 'water' turns to a vapor and goes through the Stargate, which then deactivates. O'Neill rushes up to Teal'c, who appears dazed but unharmed.]

O'NEILL
Teal'c?
TEAL'C
They had no wish to kill me, O'Neill. They only wished to travel home.
O'NEILL
That's good. You all right?
O'NEILL
I will be.
[Suddenly all the chevrons on the Gate light up.]

O'NEILL
Ok, I think we should…duck!
[They both crouch down as the Gate activates above them. The vortex narrowly misses them. When the Gate has opened they stand up and Daniel, Markov and Carter come flying through the Gate, landing hard on the ramp.]

O'NEILL
Aghh! That had to hurt!
[O'Neill and Teal'c walk over to the others, who are slowly and painfully standing up, dazed.]

O'NEILL
Didn't you guys leave here in a submarine?
[They all stare at him, shocked.]

CARTER
We err…
DANIEL
Last thing I remember is being pulled into the…
[He gestures towards the Stargate, puzzled.]

[The alpha male sees the others and roars very loudly. Other Unas appear from further inside the caves. They start to move forward but the young Unas talks again. He is pleading with the alpha male for Daniel's life evidently.]

UNAS
(to alpha male)
Cho’ee’che!
DANIEL
(to others)
This started out as some sort of rite of passage. I think the alpha male was expecting the younger one to offer me up for some kind of feast.
UNAS
(to alpha male)
Tok. Chaka, ka nan!
DANIEL
Instead I think the younger one's trying to bring me into his clan.
CARTER
Why?
DANIEL
We've communicated. We're friends!
O'NEILL
Friends?!?
[One of the other Unas approaches, swinging a club.]

O'NEILL
Daniel?
CARTER
What did you just say?
[Daniel is staring at the alpha male with a frightened look.]

DANIEL
I think I just asked him not to kill me!
[The alpha male suddenly attacks the young Unas knocking him to the ground. He then goes for Daniel who ducks to avoid him. Just as the alpha male approaches, O'Neill and Carter open fire on the alpha male hitting him several times in the chest. The alpha male staggers back only wounded and not dead. As it attempts to attack Daniel again the young Unas recovers and attacks the alpha male. In its wounded state the alpha male is overpowered and drowned by the young Unas in a shallow pool. O'Neill and the others look on still ready to fire. The other Unas from further inside the cave look at the young Unas who then gives out a loud roar. The other Unas all bow at him.]

DANIEL
He's just become the alpha male.
[The young Unas growls at the others and they retreat back into the depths of the caves. He then turns to Daniel.]

UNAS
Dan’el?
[The Unas gestures for Daniel to accompany him into the caves. Daniel shakes his head.]

DANIEL
Ka. I have to go now. Thank you. Chaka.
[The Unas growls softly, turns, and leaves. O'Neill and Carter stand up from their defensive positions and walk over to Daniel. As the Unas leaves the cavern, it stops and looks at Daniel.]

UNAS
Chaka!
O'NEILL
What'd that mean?
DANIEL
I have no idea…but I think I've just been invited to come back one day and find out.
[Carter, O'Neill and Teal'c look at Daniel as the Unas leaves the cavern.]

Scorched Earth

INT—MAIN VILLAGE TENT

[We see O'Neill, Carter and Teal'c walk into the tent to talk to Hedrazar.]

HEDRAZAR
So, what shall we do now?
[Suddenly the tent is engulfed in the orange light and Lotan and Daniel materialise in the tent.]

HEDRAZAR
(concerned)
What is it?
DANIEL
It’s ok, don’t err…don’t be afraid.
[O'Neill walks over to Daniel and Lotan.]

O’NEILL
What’s going on?
DANIEL
(to the villagers)
Lotan would like to offer you a compromise.
LOTAN
The ship has expended too many of the resources needed for the transformation process to begin on another planet.
[Hedrazar and Eliam look confused.]

LOTAN
I require that you give up this world.
[O'Neill rolls his eyes at these words.]

ELIAM
How is that a compromise?
DANIEL
(smiling)
We’ve found the original Enkaran home world.
[The villagers all gasp. Hedrazar stands up and walks forward excitedly.]

HEDRAZAR
What?
CARTER
How?
DANIEL
It was one of several million scanned by the ship before it settled on this one and it was rejected partly on the presence of intelligent life forms.
O’NEILL
(unconvinced)
He’s telling us this now?
DANIEL
Well he didn’t know and technically he’s just a day and a half old so…give him a break.
HEDRAZAR
We will gladly accept this offer to return to the home of our ancestors.
[Eliam and Nikka smile and nod at this.]

CARTER
How do we get them there?
TEAL'C
The Enkaran home world has no Stargate.
[They all look at Daniel and Lotan.]

DANIEL
Well actually I have this friend with a big spaceship who’s willing to take them.
HEDRAZAR
(amazed)
Is this possible?
LOTAN
Yes, once you are safely to your home planet I will be reintegrated into the ships systems and the ship will be returned here to complete the transformation process.
DANIEL
Does that have to happen, the part about you having to be reintegrated?
LOTAN
What other option is there?
HEDRAZAR
But you are Enkaran. You must stay with us.
LOTAN
That is not contrary to my programming.
[The Enkarans stare at Lotan puzzled.]

HEDRAZAR
Spread the word among the villages. We are going home!
[Lotan smiles at Daniel who in turn looks and smiles at O'Neill. O'Neill gives a half hearted smile back.]

EXT—PLANET SHOT

[We see SG-1 waving goodbye to Hedrazar, Eliam, Nikka and the last few villagers as they are beamed up into the ship. It then leaves the planet.]

Beneath the Surface

INT—BRENNA'S OFFICE

[Brenna is cradling her injured arm. Carter is standing next to her.]

BRENNA
It hurts!
CARTER
I know. Try not to move it. We’re going to take you home with us.
[She helps Brenna to stand and Daniel escorts her out of the office. O'Neill and Carter stare at each other for a moment. They look uncomfortable.]

DANIEL
Steven.
FRAISER
He's bleeding internally.
DANIEL
Steven, it's me.
STEVEN
Daniel?
DANIEL
What happened?
STEVEN
I took the amulet. It's over 10,000 years old. You…were right all along. I'm sorry. Ahhh!
FRAISER
Just take it easy, okay? I need you to hold still.
DANIEL
(to Steven)
It's okay! She's a friend. What about the jar?
STEVEN
Huh?
DANIEL
The Osiris jar. Did you open it?
STEVEN
No.
DANIEL
Why did you come here?
STEVEN
I figured out the amulet was a key. There's a hidden chamber. I wanted to make the discovery.
FRAISER
Daniel, we have to get him out of here!
DANIEL
Steven, who did this to you?
[Sarah enters. She's dressed in white. Her voice is Goa'uld.]

SARAH/OSIRIS
I did!
[Daniel aims the gun at Osiris.]

DANIEL
Sarah?
[Sarah ribbons Carter and Fraiser against the wall. Daniel fires. He misses. As he reloads, Osiris walks forward and grabs him around the throat.]

OSIRIS
Daniel Jackson. You seem to know much of the Goa'uld, much more than any other human I have more than any other human I have encountered since my awakening. Now tell me, where is the Stargate?
DANIEL
I don't know what you're talking about.
OSIRIS
Insolence.
[Osiris throws Daniel down against the floor.]

OSIRIS
This temple was once filled with worshippers.
DANIEL
Yeah? Well, times have changed.
OSIRIS
So I have observed. Where is my brother, Setesh?
DANIEL
Ah, you mean Seth. Uh…He's dead. Yeah, we killed him.
OSIRIS
You lie!
DANIEL
No! No, we also killed Ra, and Hathor, and uh…who else? Ah, Sokar!
OSIRIS
Then you have done me a great favour. I will rule without opposition.
DANIEL
No! No, you won't rule at all. You see, we don't worship false gods anymore.
OSIRIS
You have come far, it is true. But you are still weak. Even though you are torn between your desire to kill me, and your concern for my host, she who freed me from my long sleep. What do you know of my queen?
DANIEL
Um…She was trapped, like you. We have the jar.
OSIRIS
Where is it?
DANIEL
I'm not going to tell you.
OSIRIS
You are mistaken.
[Osiris puts her ribbon device above Daniel's head and starts to ribbon him. In pain, he reaches into his pocket and pulls out a dart.]

OSIRIS
Where is my queen? Tell me!
[Daniel takes the dart, uncaps it and sticks it in Osiris' leg. Osiris stops the ribbon device.]

OSIRIS
What is this? What have you done?
[Osiris takes the dark from her leg.]

OSIRIS
You will pay for this impudence!
[Osiris opens the same slot Steven found and activates something. The sand above the tomb starts to clear to reveal a pyramid Goa'uld ship.]

OSIRIS
Make no mistake, Osiris will return, and the rivers of the earth will run red with blood.
[Osiris presses the top of the ribbon device. Carter comes round and reaches for her gun. The ring transport rings come down. Carter fires. The bullets bounce off the rings. Osiris vanishes. Carter goes to Daniel who is crouched on the ground in obvious pain.]

CARTER
You all right?
DANIEL
Oh, yeah! Yeah! I think I'm…getting used to that thing!
FRAISER
Where's Osiris?
CARTER
Gone.
DANIEL
Steven?
FRAISER
If we get him out of here right now, I think he'll make it.
DANIEL
I guess we'd better make up a story to tell him.
[The ship leaves Earth.]

The Serpent's Venom

INT—GLIDER

[We see Rak'nor in the pilot seat and Teal'c seated behind him.]

TEAL'C
It is good to hear your voice, O'Neill.
O'NEILL
Glad ya made it, Teal'c.
TEAL'C
As am I.
JACOB
We can rendezvous on the third moon of Tishner.
RAK'NOR
We will meet you there.
DANIEL
Well, I guess we've stopped the alliance.
SELMAK
Unfortunately, it is the worst possible result.
O'NEILL
No war.
SELMAK
No. We could not have predicted that Apophis would bring a clocked fleet into the minefield.
CARTER
So what now?
SELMAK
Apophis will easily absorb Heru'ur's forces into his own. He is now a bigger threat than ever before.

Chain Reaction

INT—HAMMOND'S OFFICE

[O'Neill puts the phone down.]

O'NEILL
General, about what you owe me?
HAMMOND
Anything I can do.
O'NEILL
Well, nothing right now. But one day I may ask you to…buy back my soul.
EXT—A TROPICAL ISLAND, DAY

[Maybourne puts his arm around a local woman and dances off to the sound of the steel band.]

HAMMOND
Stand down. What is it?
[O'Neill walks up the ramp. He picks up the note and walks back down, reading it.]

DANIEL
Well?
[O'Neill hands the note to Daniel.]

O'NEILL
You tell me.
DANIEL
"Under no circumstances go to P4C-970. Colonel Jack O'Neill." That looks like your handwriting.
O'NEILL
It is my handwriting. And that's my signature.
TEAL'C
Though you sent no such note.
O'NEILL
No.
FRAISER
Sir, may I?
[Daniel hands the note to Fraiser.]

FRAISER
That looks like blood, sir.
HAMMOND
Have it analyzed.
[Fraiser leaves.]

O'NEILL
General, wasn't 970 on our mission list?
HAMMOND
It was. Not anymore. I'm not taking any chances. I want P4C-970 removed from the dialling computer immediately. Dismissed.
[Hammond walks out. O'Neill sits down on the side of the ramp.]

CARTER
I wonder why you sent it…I wonder when.
O'NEILL
Yeah. You got to wonder…

Absolute Power

INT—CORRIDOR

[SFs lower their weapons as the energy being passes.]

[O'Neill, Carter, Daniel and Teal'c enter the control room. The Gate has dialled and the wormhole is visible.]

TECH DAVIS
The Gate just opened, Sir.
[The light being enters the Gate room. More SFs put down their weapons. On the ramp it solidifies a little into Shifu. Shifu turns and waves at Daniel. Daniel waves back. Shifu goes through the Gate. The Gate shuts down. O'Neill looks at Daniel, who looks upset but peaceful.]

The Light

INT—PALACE, THE LIGHT ROOM

[Daniel, Carter and Teal'c are messing in the pedestal base.]

O'NEILL
What have you got?
DANIEL
We think we can turn it off.
LORAN
Don't let them. You'll die like my parents.
CARTER
If we shut if off cold turkey, Loran is right, we'll go into withdrawal again. But Teal'c and Daniel have translated some of the writing inside this thing, Sir, and we think it was designed to be turned down incrementally.
DANIEL
The Goa'uld who used this place needed human slaves in order to tend to their needs while they were here.
CARTER
We've already taken it down a notch without any harm.
TEAL'C
Within two or three weeks your brain chemistry will return to normal. You may then return home.
O'NEILL
So three weeks in a palace by the beach? Teal'c, you don't have to hang around. Why don't you head back and let Hammond know what's going on?
TEAL'C
Very well.
LORAN
And then you'll leave?
O'NEILL
I think we all will. Right?
CARTER
Yeah. He should return to normal along with the rest of us.
LORAN
Then I can go with you?
O'NEILL
Sure. Come on. Let's go see Teal'c off. You like ice cream?
LORAN
What's ice cream?

Prodigy

EXT—M4C-862,BY STARGATE, DAY

[O'Neill starts to dial the chevrons in. As he dials Chevron Four, the light bugs start to attack him. He drops his zat and dials two more chevrons before falling to the ground.]

O'NEILL
I'll never complain about mosquitoes again.
[A short time later, the entire expedition arrives at the active Stargate.]

LEE
We owe you our thanks, Colonel.
O'NEILL
I s'pose.
HAMILTON
And I owe you...an apology.
O'NEILL
I suppose you do.
[The scientists, O'Neill and Teal'c go through the Gate. Carter and Hailey stop in front of the event horizon.]

HAILEY
Is it always like this?
CARTER
No, sometimes it gets really exciting.
HAILEY
Will I ever find out which one of us is right?
CARTER
If you stick around long enough, maybe. Besides there'll always be other planets.
HAILEY
It's a moon.
CARTER
Okay, you're right about that.

Entity

INT—SGC, MALP STORAGE ROOM

[Carter has been moved into the MALP room on her bed. The words 'I am here' are still scrolling up all the computer screens in the room. The EEG monitor has also been wheeled in. A nurse is assisting Carter's breathing with a bag. Fraiser, Hammond, Siler, O'Neill, Daniel and Teal'c are present.]

FRAISER
This EEG matches Sam's. I don't know how, but it's her.
HAMMOND
So what do we do?
FRAISER
There's nothing I can do, Sir, but to provide a conduit for her to return into her own body.
[Teal'c raises his zat gun.]

TEAL'C
The entity has deceived us on several occasions.
HAMMOND
Go ahead, Doctor.
FRAISER
Yes, Sir.
[Fraiser flicks a switch and Carter jerks with the electric current. All the computer screens go blank. Fraiser diconnects Carter from the electronics. Carter takes a breath.]

FRAISER
She's back.
[Teal'c lowers his weapon.]

O'NEILL
Hey Carter, where you been?
CARTER
It's gone?
HAMMOND
Yes it is.
CARTER
I was shouting for you to hear.
O'NEILL
We heard.

Double Jeopardy

INT—PYAMID ON JUNA, THRONE ROOM

[Clone O'Neill is lying on the floor. Darien is dressing his wounds.]

DARIEN
You were very badly damaged.
CLONE O'NEILL
Yes.
DARIEN
But you are a machine. Can you not be mended?
CLONE O'NEILL
Possibly. Darien, I'm running out of energy. I will shut down soon.
DARIEN
I promise, you will never be forgotten.
[The ring transporter transports O'Neill down from the ship]

O'NEILL
Go tell your people Cronus is dead. If they still think he's a God, have 'em come take a look.
[Darien leaves.]

CLONE O'NEILL
Carter, Teal'c?
O'NEILL
Yours don't look so good. The real ones, they're okay.
CLONE O'NEILL
Are we still so far from real to you?
O'NEILL
No. I guess not.
CLONE O'NEILL
Then I believe we are done.
[Clone O'Neill closes his eyes and dies.]

EXT—MOTHER SHIP DESCENDING OVER THE PYRAMID

Exodus

INT—SGC'S MOTHERSHIP, FLIGHT DECK

[The ship goes into Hyperspeed. Suddenly, it is thrown out of Hyperspeed.]

CARTER
What just happened?
JACOB
We must have caught the tail end of the blast wave. It knocked us off course.
[O'Neill and Daniel enter.]

CARTER
Sir. Where's Teal'c?
O'NEILL
I'm not sure. I think he's dead.
JACOB
If Apophis has him…
CARTER
Well, we have to go back.
JACOB
That may not be possible, Sam. The navigational computer isn't recognising any of the star patterns. According to these readings we've travelled over four million light years.
CARTER
That's impossible.
JACOB
We're not even in our own galaxy anymore.
CARTER
Well the explosion must have somehow affected the subspace window created by the hyperdrive.
O'NEILL
Wait…wait a minute, what are you saying? We can't get back?
JACOB
I don't know. The ship isn't normally capable of going so fast.
O'NEILL
It only took us a few seconds to get here.
JACOB
Given our current position, and maximum hyperdrive speed, it's going to take us 125 years to get back. Long range sensors are picking up another ship. It's Apophis…

Celsius, can I make a sugestion? I thought that the transcript from The Curse was too long, and too many moments included, and on the other hand, Tangent and Absolute Power were too short, and did't present the whole situation...
I know that not every ending is equally long, but could we just consider the last scene or dialog, and discard all the rest? Or at least use the same criteria for all the episodes....
It's just a suggestion.... :o

Lucreleia I see your point, I'll try to cut the episodes down when there is a longer scene like The Curse :)

[Teal'c is tied up, sitting with his back to the wall, eyes closed, when O'Neill approaches. O'Neill crouches down before him.]

TEAL'C
You may torture me all you wish. I will tell you nothing.
O'NEILL
I'm sorry I had to shoot you, you didn't give me much choice though.
(When Teal'c doesn't respond)
Apophis is dead.
[Teal'c opens his eyes and stares at O'Neill.]

TEAL'C
I do not believe you.
O'NEILL
Trust me.
TEAL'C
Gods cannot be killed.
[Teal'c closes his eyes once more.]

Threshold

INT—INFIRMARY, SGC

[Teal'c experiences a multitude of flashbacks, the sum of all the things he has done since he joined SG-1. His eyes snap open]

TEAL'C
I choose freedom.
[He looks to the others, who all seem shocked. Bra'tac bends over him and stares into his eyes for a long moment, before smiling.]

BRA'TAC
The right has succeeded. He has returned to us.
O'NEILL
Uh, just out of curiosity…how do you feel about…?
TEAL'C
Apophis is a false god. A dead, false god.
[The others all smile.]

O'NEILL
It's good enough for me. Get him out of those restraints.
[As Fraiser starts to undo the straps, Hammond enters the room.]

HAMMOND
(to Fraiser)
Thank you doctor, well done.
FRAISER
Yes Sir. I'm glad it worked out too.
CARTER
Hey Teal'c.
TEAL'C
Major Carter, Daniel Jackson.
(He clasps Bra'tac's forearm)
Te'ma'tey.
BRA'TAC
My friend.
TEAL'C
General Hammond, I once again pledge my allegiance to you and the people of this world. And I request permission to return to SG-1.
HAMMOND
Permission granted.

Ascension

[Orlin dives forward and Reynolds opens fire, but he manages to disconnect the cables to the device in a shower of sparks.]

[The device begins to lose power and goes dead.]

[Carter rushes over to Orlin, who has been shot several times.]

ORLIN
I can't believe how much this hurts.
CARTER
Just hang on.
REYNOLDS
Major, we got to get out of here.
CARTER
We can dial out. We can't risk the blast translating through the wormhole.
ORLIN
I have to go, Sam.
(He touches her face)
They've given me another chance. It's the only way I can save you.
[He starts to glow and the hand touching her face slips away into the light as he moves away from her. He passes over the naquada reactor, to the shock of Colonel Reynolds, and takes it high into the sky where it explodes in a massive blast. The others all duck as a lightning bolt shoots down and destroys the device for good. Carter slowly raises herself to look up at the sky through the gap in the cavern and see clouds begin to clear.]

The Fifth Man

EXT—STARGATE CLEARING, PLANET—DAY

[Tyler is dialling up the Gate and it opens.]

O'NEILL
You know, before your people go and bury your Gate or anything like that, you should know that not everyone you meet is going to try and hunt you down. We could be allies you know.
TYLER
It is not my decision to make, but I will tell the other what happened here. It might just convince them we don't have to hide forever.
[He walks up the steps and looks back smiling.]

TYLER
Maybe then you can take me fishing.
[He disappears into the Stargate.]

Red Sky

[Everyone gasps as the sun begins to return to normal.]

O'NEILL
Am I having a stroke?
[Carter shakes her head]

ELRAD
Blessed be Freyr! Bow your heads, and thank him for granting our prayers.
CARTER
I'm pretty sure we didn't do this, Sir. At least not on our own.
TEAL'C
The Asgard.
CARTER
They said they wouldn't help.
O'NEILL
Overtly.
CARTER
So, you're saying that by starting the process, we gave them the opportunity to step in without the Goa'uld knowing?
O'NEILL
A way of saving face. Technical loophole?
DANIEL
Or not! Well, I mean, we'll never know for sure will we?
EXT—K'TAU

[The villagers look up as camera pans to the new sky.]

Rite of Passage

INT—SGC INFIRMARY

[Cassandra looks much better. She is sitting up in bed, wearing a white t-shirt and blue jacket. Textbooks are open in front of her, and she is reading one of them. The camera pans round to see Fraiser completing a chart. She glances up to check on Cassandra. The camera continues to pan, to reveal Carter walking in with a chess set.]

FRAISER
The uh…homework's backed up. Other than that she's just fine. I get to take her home tonight.
CARTER
Uuhh…Dominic awaits.
CASSANDRA
(unimpressed)
Stop it.
CARTER
(teasing)
Uh come on, that last kiss was impressive.
[Fraiser smiles.]

CARTER
It's Saturday.
CASSANDRA
OK. But…I won't be able to move the pieces around just by thinking about it…sorry.
[She grins.]

CARTER
Good. Then we're even.

DANIEL
Ka keka.
CHAKA
Ska. Ka kek.
[Chaka takes the zat.]

CHAKA
A cha’ka.
DANIEL
Chaka.
[The Unas leave.]

O'NEILL
You just sent them out to start a war.
DANIEL
Well, it was his choice. I told them they didn't have to kill.
O'NEILL
You think he understands that?
DANIEL
They know what freedom is, and they are willing to fight for it. They deserve a chance.

The Tomb

RUSSIAN COLONEL
Lieutenant Tolinev corroborates your story.
O'NEILL
So she was telling the truth.
RUSSIAN COLONEL
She will be debriefed again, of course, once we're back in Moscow, where she can speak more freely.
O'NEILL
Yeah. I'm sure you'll be able to get her to say whatever you want.
HAMMOND
Colonel, this isn't the time.
O'NEILL
General, Zukhov's secret orders put us all in jeopardy. I want that on the record.
RUSSIAN COLONEL
Your opinion is already a matter of public record, Colonel. So is the fact that every member of your team survived, yet only one Russian soldier made it back alive. Barely.
O'NEILL
Yeah, if your people understood the concept of chain of command, none of this…
RUSSIAN COLONEL
No! We are agreed. You were in command. We also know which lives you were willing to sacrifice.
HAMMOND
We regret the loss of life and offer our condolences to the families of your officers.
RUSSIAN COLONEL
And I'm sure you also regret this Eye of Tiamat was buried along with Colonel Zukhov, never to be recovered.
HAMMOND
Yes, we do.
RUSSIAN COLONEL
Perhaps it is best to admit we both made mistakes, huh?
O'NEILL
It would be better if you just admitted you screwed up.
RUSSIAN COLONEL
I will pass that sentiment along, Colonel.
O'NEILL
Yeah, please do.
RUSSIAN COLONEL
I'm sure this will have no bearing on our future participation.
O'NEILL
I wouldn't count on future participation if I were you.
RUSSIAN COLONEL
No? I would.

Between Two Fires

INT—SGC BRIEFING ROOM

HAMMOND
(Looking out the window to the Gate)
So, we can reasonably assume the Goa'uld did not get any of these weapons.
O'NEILL
We can only hope.
HAMMOND
What about these new shields?
TEAL'C
The Goa'uld do not share technology.
CARTER
Well, whoever Tanith is now working for, these new shields give him a decided advantage.
HAMMOND
Teal'c? Any guesses who it might be?
TEAL'C
None, General Hammond.
HAMMOND
I suppose we have to rest assured that who ever it is, they are still afraid of confronting the Asgard or they would have attacked Earth themselves.
DANIEL
For now.
DAVIS
(Over intercom)
Incoming communication!
[Hammond leads the way down to the control room.]

DAVIS
We're getting a direct transmission from a Tollan long range communication device.
NARIM
(Garbled transmission over tannoy)
…To get the people out. The Stargate was destroyed…
CARTER
Narim.
NARIM
All defenses failing…our ships attempting to escape are being shot down…I just want you to know that…
[The transmission dies into static.]

[Carter flies through the Gate onto the ramp, ending up on the steps.]

CARTER
Close the iris!
[The iris closes. There is a thud. A medic runs up to Carter as Kinsey enters.]

KINSEY
(To O'Neill)
What in God's name is going on here?
CARTER
(Still lying on the ramp)
When they knew we were on to them, they launched a bio-weapon.
KINSEY
(To O'Neill)
Colonel!
CARTER
I had to warn you, I couldn't wait for the ambassador. I'm sorry, Sir.
KINSEY
Colonel—I asked you a question.
O'NEILL
(To Carter)
You did good, Major.
CARTER
Thank you, Sir.
HAMMOND
Let's get her to the infirmary now.
KINSEY
Colonel. I swear, O'Neill. There's gonna be an investigation into this.
[He leaves.]

O'NEILL
That'd be fine. O'Neill—Two Ls
[He holds up three fingers.]

DANIEL
I guess we dodged the bullet there?
TEAL'C
Senator Kinsey seems most displeased.
O'NEILL
Yeah, that's a crying shame, isn't it?
DANIEL
I just hope we don't regret giving them those Gate addresses.
O'NEILL
I don't think we will, the first one being a black hole and all. They get progressively darker from there.
(To Carter, being tended to on the ramp)
Carter? You all right?
[Carter nods.]

Desperate Measures

INT—INTERROGATION ROOM

CONRAD/GOA'ULD
I expect better treatment than this.
SIMMONS
Well, right now you have no choice. But once you start delivering on your end of our little bargain, I might be able to move you to better accommodations.
CONRAD/GOA'ULD
You cannot offer anything of equal value to the knowledge I possess.

Now for season 5 episodes 12 - 22:

Wormhole X-Treme

INT—ALIEN WALL SET, WORMHOLE X-TREME SOUNDSTAGE

[The three other cast members are in positions, standing sideways in heroic poses. Marlowe is in the foreground, facing forward. His hands are on his hips as he looks at the floor for his mark.]

DIRECTOR
And, turn your back to me.
[Marlowe cautiously starts turning his back to the Director.]

DIRECTOR
Turn all the way around to me. And do the annoying thing, and then look back. And…action!
MICHAEL DELUISE
(dropping out of the Marlowe/Danning character)
How could this not be a real show?
[The other three relax and laugh.]

HAMMOND
SG teams require the commitment to go above and beyond the call of duty. You've just demonstrated that, Lieutenant.
ELLIOT
Yes, sir.
HAMMOND
After a few days rest, you're to report back to the SGC, where you will be assigned to SG-17 under Major Mansfield.
O'NEILL
If you think I was tough on you…
ELLIOT
What about the rest of the team?
HAMMOND
They will be assigned to SG teams as positions become available down the road, but the first assignment is yours.
ELLIOT
Yes, sir.
HAMMOND
Congratulations, son.
[Hammond shakes Elliot's hand and exits.]

O'NEILL
Good job. Hey, you knew it was a test when you shot me, right?
ELLIOT
Well…maybe…suspected.
O'NEILL
And you really think the test is over now?
[The red alarm light begins to strobe and the klaxons begin to blare as O'Neill and Elliot exit the gate room.]

O'NEILL
Shake it off, Sparky.

O'NEILL
Teal'c, buddy. You alright?
TEAL'C
Indeed.
CARTER
Teal'c, as far you know what just happened?
TEAL'C
I have my revenge, Tanith is dead!
[O'Neill claps him on the shoulder.]

O'NEILL
That's nice. I'm happy for you.
CARTER
It's good to see you in one piece.
O'NEILL
Yes, we thought we lost you, again.
CARTER
Are you sure you're feeling perfectly normal?
TEAL'C
Yes. What has transpired here?
O'NEILL
Well, believe it or not you owe your life to a Goa'uld.
TEAL'C
Never!
O'NEILL
Yes.

Summit

INT—TOK'RA TUNNEL

[SG-1 and Elliot are trying to find a way out when more of the ceiling collapses.]

TEAL'C
The tunnel is blocked.
CARTER
Does Lantash know if there's another way to the secondary ring room?
ELLIOT
There isn't.
TEAL'C
Then indeed we are trapped.

LANTASH
Please. We're both going to die. I cannot save us.
(looks directly at Carter)
But there's a chance we can save you.
O'NEILL
What about Elliot?
ELLIOT
It doesn't make sense for any of you to risk your lives to try and save me. Give me the device.
[Daniel looks to O'Neill, who looks away, then nods reluctantly. Daniel gives him the device.]

ELLIOT
Now go. They'll be here soon.
[Carter caresses the side of his face. He looks at Carter.]

ELLIOT
He's happy now; he just wanted you to know how he felt.
CARTER
I do. And I'll never forget him. Or you.
[A glider flies over.]

TEAL'C
Ground forces will not be far behind.
JACOB
Sam, we got to go.
[Carter strokes Elliot's cheek as he looks terrified. Carter is led away by Jacob. O'Neill nods at Elliot, then walks off. Elliot is left alone, his breathing laboured. He hears a Jaffa hunting horn, and puts the poison in his pocket. He looks terrified but resolved. Many Jaffa footsteps can be heard, followed by another horn blast.]

Fail Safe

INT—BRIDGE OF CARGO SHIP

[Daniel and Teal'c are resting in the command chairs while Carter and O'Neill rest on the ground, O'Neill lying on his back.]

DANIEL
So, two hours of life support, then what?
O'NEILL
Hammond will find us.
DANIEL
I'm confident.
CARTER
Me, too.
TEAL'C
As am I.
[There is a strange electronic noise. O'Neill and Carter get up as a video screen pops up.]

TEAL'C
Sensors are picking up a vessel approaching. It appears to be another cargo ship.
CARTER
Goa'uld?
TEAL'C
I do not know. The ship is taking up position directly above us.
[A Tok'ra appears on the electronic viewscreen.]

JALEN
I am Jalen of the To'kra. We received your distress call and came as fast as we could. Can we render assistance?
O'NEILL
Well, you know, it's not like we don't have everything totally under control here, but… sure render away.
[The rest of SG-1 looks bemusedly at O'Neill.]

The Warrior

EXT—CLEARING BY STARGATE, CAL MAH, DAY

[Carter finishes dialing the stargate and joins Daniel by it. He steps through first leading the Jaffa. Carter guides the Jaffa until O'Neill approaches, then steps through herself.]

JAFFA FEMALE #2
Go, go!
O'NEILL
Teal'c, let's go!
[O'Neill helps some of the Jaffa mount the steps. Behind him, Teal'c moves forward, still supported by Bra'tac. They pause and watch as the encampment is destroyed.]

BRA'TAC
Our time will come, old friend, but not this day.
[Teal'c looks at Bra'tac and nods weakly. They head through the stargate.]

Menace

INT—GATE ROOM

DANIEL
You stupid sonova*****.
O'NEILL
Hey. You're welcome.
DANIEL
You didn't have to shoot her.
O'NEILL
Yes I did.
DANIEL
She was shutting them down.
O'NEILL
I had no way of knowing that and neither did you.
DANIEL
They didn't stop because you shot her. They stopped because she told them to.
O'NEILL
Carter said she was losing control. Now if just one of those damn things got out of this base, developed its own personality, we would be royally screwed.
DANIEL
You just killed the only chance we'll ever have of stopping them.
O'NEILL
Look, I'm sorry. But this is the way it had to go down and you know it.
O'NEILL
(Into radio)
All units, this is SG One Niner, commence sweep. I want every one of those damn things out of here.
[He leaves the Gate room, leaving Daniel sitting on the floor beside Reece.]

GROGAN
What just happened?
CARTER
The Sentinel was never damaged, sir. It just required a human component.
[Daniel starts to unchain O'Neill.]

DANIEL
Man and machine working together to become a weapon.
TEAL'C
The Sentinel is indeed a device of great power. It would be wise to ask the Latonans if we may study it further.
O'NEILL
Oh, I think I know what they'd say.

O'NEILL
Hey… where are you going?
DANIEL
I don't know.
[Daniel walks through the Gate and disappears as O'Neill watches.]

END DREAM SEQUENCE

INT—SGC INFIRMARY

[Daniel ascends through the ceiling, and we close on O'Neill's face.]

Revelations

INT—SGC CORRIDOR

[O'Neill and Teal'c walk down a corridor in casual clothes.]

O'NEILL
We're not that much of a nuisance just yet.
TEAL'C
Of that I am not so sure.
[They meet Carter and Hammond at the elevator.]

CARTER
Hey.
O'NEILL
Hey.
CARTER
Heading home?
O'NEILL
Actually, Teal'c and I were thinking of stopping off for a bite to eat. Interested?
CARTER
Sounds good.
O'NEILL
General?
HAMMOND
You three go ahead, I've still got some work to do.
[Suddenly Carter's hair is ruffled by a gust of wind. Teal'c also turns towards the breeze.]

CARTER
What was that?
[Hammond turns back to look at SG-1]

TEAL'C
Perhaps a malfunction in the ventilation system?
O'NEILL
Yeah, that's probably it.
CARTER
(to Hammond) Bye, sir, have a good night.
[Hammond walks off. Carter walks into the elevator and Teal'c follows. Another gust of wind ruffles O'Neill's hair and he turns into the elevator, smiling.]

Honorable mention goes to Last Stand, Fail Safe, The Warrior, and Revelations.

It seems that each round, I either have a difficult time coming up with three things I want to vote for, or I come up with six or seven things I want to vote for.

I agree with you completely, Katerine. There's so much good stuff to choose from this time.

The top 2 are of course:
Meridian
Menace

For the 3rd I think I'll go with:
Last Stand

I also really like 48 Hours, Revelations, and Wormhole X-Treme!

Wormhole X-treme! *I’m counting that whole bit at the end with the “actors”. Especially the part with Dr. Levant. “I'm Christian Bocher. Portraying the character of Raymond Gunne who portrays the character of Dr Levant which is based on the character Daniel Jackson portrayed by the actor Michael Shanks originally portrayed by the actor James Spader. In the feature film.” And then they toss the boulders on him. :D

I also wanted to vote for Last Stand and 48 Hours......
